Our teachers, Our heroes.

Why we are celebrating Teacher's Day? When did this started?

In India, the Teacher's Day is celebrated on 5th September and this tradition started from 1962. This is the when Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was born. He was a philosopher, scholar, teacher, and politician and his dedicated work towards education made his birthday an important day in the history of India. We remember the great work of this exemplary person on this day.

Actually, this man, Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was a friendly teacher and he was popular among his students for the example he always set in front of them. So, one day his students and friends requested him to allow them to celebrate his birthday in a lavish way. In return he said that it would be his pride and honor if they celebrate his birthday in respect of all teachers. And since then this day 5th September is celebrated as Teacher's Day.

Now, talking about the rest of the world, World Teacher's Day is celebrated on 5th October and it started form 1994. It was UNESCO who started this tradition. The focus set by UNESCO was to celebrate the engrossment and accomplishment of teachers and also the primacies that they put on the field of education. Now why 5th October is taken up as the Teacher's Day? On this day in the year 1966, a special intergovernmental conference adopted the UNESCO endorsement regarding the statuses of teachers.

Teacher's Day is celebrated every year as a thank you for all the teachers who is dedicated to shape our young minds. They help mold our minds, talents, values, social skills and countless things. They are also the one who is playing the role as a parent to us when we are inside the campus. We also celebrate to thank them for their unconditional support and endless hard work they have done for making us a successful human being with good soul.

As we know that we can never pay a teacher’s favour that they has given by making us educated person, responsible citizen of nation and a good human being in life but we can thank them by celebrating Teacher’s Day in such manner that they can feel proud on us.
