Valentine's Day 2025

“Are you wifi? Because I’m feeling a connection!” 

Valentine’s Day is a day where love sparks for some couples to hang out and appreciate their partner. Valentine's day is a big event in St. Nicks even though our school is a girls’ school. For SN, we give cards, candies and other small gifts in the morning. 

Students give their friends handmade cards with short pick up lines like “Are you French? Because Eiffel for you.” and of course with candies that make everyone crazy and high on sugar! Our school is bustling with students running to every level of the secondary block, making rounds around the school with big bags in their hands to give out all their cards. Sec 1 facilitators were also running around to their orientation group they were in charge of and giving out the gifts! During recess, there was one project advertising their project by selling things that could be given as Valentines’ gifts, which makes it even better for those that did not have time to prepare. 

These cards are short and thoughtful, making them easy to prepare. However, imagine you writing for your whole CCA! 20 plus people?! That’s a lot of effort for a one-day event! That is why a card is really simple but hard to make with all the writing we have to do. Some students also make paper flowers which is such a great way to show platonic love with their friends.

All of us love Valentine's Day with passion due to the amount of care and it’s another friendship day for us, making it a day where we show our sweetness to our friends and CCA mates or seniors!
