I was wondering the reason for tje Bank holiday on Monday that everyone is so happy about, so i googled and all i could find was Summer bank holiday: Last Monday in August. Is there a reason for it or just a declared day off? (I am in US)

Just curious.

Thank you all for your replies. I have heard about the generous leave time in Europe. I also teach with some women from Jamaica, and they were allowed to take vacation time during the school year when classes were in session. I know as a teacher I get a lot of time off, but am forced to travel when everyone else is going places with their children. It is one downfall of our job. Thanks again!
