Teacher’s Day in Ukraine is celebrated on the first Sunday in October each year. Teacher’s Day is an observance and not a national public holiday in Ukraine.
This observance is held in appreciation of teachers and other workers in the education sector across the country. Many teachers receive flowers as a symbol of appreciation for their achievements.
Many other countries celebrate World Teacher’s Day, which is also held in early October. More than 100 nations celebrate the World Teachers’ Day globally.
Teachers’ Day aims to raise awareness of the importance of the role played by teachers all over the world. The responsibility for educating future generations is not a light one by any means, so show your support for these dedicated and important people not just on Teachers’ Day, but throughout the whole year.
TEACHERS
by Kevin William Huff
Teachers
Paint their minds
And guide their thoughts
Share their achievements
And advise their faults.
Inspire a LOVE
Of knowledge and truth
As you light the path
Which leads our youth.
For our future brightens
With each lesson you teach
Each smile you lengthen
Each goal you help reach.
For the dawn of each poet
Each philosopher and king
Begins with a TEACHER
And the wisdom they bring.
WHY GOD CREATED TEACHERS
by Jill Wolf
When God created teachers,
He gave us special friends
To help us understand His world
And truly comprehend
The beauty and the wonder
Of everything we see,
And become a better person
With each discovery.
When God created teachers,
He gave us special guides
To show us ways in which to grow
So we can all decide
How to live and how to do
What’s right instead of wrong,
To lead us so that we can lead
And learn how to be strong.
Why God created teachers,
In His wisdom and His grace,
Was to help us learn to make our world
A better, wiser place.
