Saint Valentine in Malta. Some Traditionalist Catholics observe earlier calendars of the Roman Rite, in which Saint Valentine was celebrated as a Simple Feast until 1955, when Pope Pius XII reduced the mention of him to a commemoration in the Mass of the day, a position it kept in the General Roman Calendar of 1960 incorporated in the 1962 edition of the Roman Missal, use of which, as an extraordinary form of the Roman Rite, is still authorized in accordance with Pope Benedict XVI's 2007 motu proprio "Summorum Pontificum". February 14 is also celebrated as St. Valentine's Day in other Christian Churches;
Children's Day since 1989. Traditionally, 1 October is the day which Singapore officially celebrates Children's Day.

In South Africa, Children's Day is on the first Saturday of November but not really celebrated in any significant way.
