World Teachers Day! October 5, 2010

Since i am the student council president of our school, I was told to deliver a short message for the teachers.. I am not really a good speaker but i tried my best to be a good one :) all of these were from the bottom of my heart....


Good afternoon. Today, we are celebrating the World Teachers’ Day.  This is to honor teachers who play a critical role in guiding and in providing us students a life-long learning which is one of the basic rights of children. And despite facing various obstacles that test their creativity and patience, they steadfastly stand by their commitment to give their mentoring best. This occasion allows us to acknowledge the unique role teachers play in guiding families, strengthening societies and building nations. So let us be grateful with the efforts of our modern-day heroes.

I would like to encourage every student to say "Thank you" to at least one teacher who has made a difference in your life. Saying "thank you" is just our simple way of giving back to our teachers who have touched our lives in one way or another. If we consider our Overseas Filipino Workers as our modern-day heroes, we should also do the same to our teachers. We should have a "Mother's Day" type of celebration but in a grander scale.

In connection with this occasion, the supreme student government conducted this short program to honor you teachers! We prepared different presentations that we wish could make you smile.


I wanna end this short talk in a quote from a book I read, Tuesday's with Morrie by Mitch Albom.. It says, "A teacher affects eternity. He can never tell where his influence stops."

So once again, THANK YOU TEACHERS. Continue nurturing every person's mind and character. We, SALUTE YOU!
