7 schools suspend classes on Black Nazarene day

 

MANILA, Philippines - At least seven elementary and high schools will suspend classes on Wednesday due to the celebration of the Feat of the Black Nazarene.

The schools include Manila High School, Victoriano Mapa High School, Apolinario Mabini Elementary School, Geronimo Santiago Elementary School, Ramon Avanceña High School, Manila Science High School and Araullo High School.

The schools' classes will be suspended as millions of Black Nazarene devotees are expected to join the feast, which is highlighted by the procession of the black image of Jesus Christ from the Quiapo Church.

Classes in the seven schools will resume on Thursday
