Teacher's Day Celebration (5/9/12)

Teacher's Day is celebrated as a tribute to the valuable contribution made by teachers to the society by imparting knowledge and enlightening and shaping the career of students. Nothing will ever replace a good teacher even in this age of many sources of information. One of the ways students celebrate Teachers’ Day is by representing teachers in their classes doing the work their teachers do. This is an occasion they realize what it means to be a teacher and what it means to control and direct several students in their classes. The vital contribution that teachers make to education and development is specially honoured on Teachers’ Day- a day we gratefully remember the great educationist, Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, the second President of India.

Students of Orchids- The International School celebrated Teachers’ Day with a lot of eagerness. They spoke expressing gratitude to their teachers, represented them cheerfully and entertained them with ‘Guess the teacher’ programme, musical chairs and fun and frolic. Cake-cutting followed. Principal, Mrs. Mona Mehdi appreciated the students of class X for a proper organization of the event. She, on behalf of the Management of Orchids, gifted teachers as a token of recognition of their efforts and arranged an outing for the staff members.

Teachers mould the lives that they influence because the lessons learnt from teachers remain with their students throughout life. Teachers need encouragement and support from the community to feel that their devotion to students is appreciated.

‘What nobler employment, or more valuable to the state, than that of the man who instructs the rising generation?’
