Celebrating a public holiday observation in honour of His Royal Majesty King Charles III of England..
King Charles III is the constitutional monarch of 16 sovereign states and the Supreme Governor of the Church of England. He was born on 14 November 1948 but his birthday is celebrated on a separate date. In Britain, the monarch’s birthday has been celebrated since 1748 and, in Australia, every year since the First Fleet arrived in 1788. The birthday was always celebrated on the actual date of the monarch’s birthday until 1936, the year of the death of King George V, Elizabeth’s grandfather. His birthday was 3 June and the date has since stayed around early June.
