yesterday one of the parents was telling the teacher that his sprog wouldn't be in today as it's Eid.
Yes there are 2 Eids that are celebrated

This one is not the end of Ramadan
Well, whatever. It is still Eid, or the Sacrifice Feast. All Muslims by tradition share food etc with other Muslims to ensure that nobody (the poor and hungry or impoverished) goes without. Traditionally this was usually the sacrifice and sharing out of domestic animals such as chickens or goats (Udhiya) etc, so it is generally a feast of sorts, regardless of whether they were fasting or not during Ramadan.

Happy Eid
