World Animal Day is an international day day of action celebrated every year on October 4th to raise awareness of animal welfare and rights. It's a day to celebrate animals and educate people about the importance of treating them with kindness and respect and October 4th is chosen because is the feast day of Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals. Why not get your class involved in one of the following ways and use World Animal Day as a starting point for events throughout the year - as animal kindness should be every day!
