October 5 – National Teachers’ Day: Time to appreciate our teachers
To give a simple appreciation for all the teachers all over the Philippines, the Department of Education or DepEd celebrates the National Teachers’ Month every year. National Teachers’ Month is observed from September 5 until October 5.
Coincidentally, October 5 is also the National Teachers’ Day and World Teachers’ Day. For 2023, the theme is “Together4Teachers.” This celebration is full of different activities, treats, events, and services for all the teachers in different places.
With the theme “Together4Teachers”, National Teachers Month 2023 aims to acknowledge and emphasize teachers’ crucial role, loyal service, and dedicated commitment to developing globally-minded citizens, nurturing families, strengthening communities, and building the nation.
There will be no successful engineer, governor, lawyer, chef, doctor or even another teacher without the sacrifices made by our patient teachers. In other words, one of the big reasons why we are what we are right now is because of our teachers.
