Celebration of World Teachers Day (5 Oct 2011)
A seminar on the World Teacher’s Day was conducted by BETHAK organization under the chair of Francis Jacob Director BETHAK Organization. A large number of parents, teachers and students attended the seminar. Akhater Jalal, Jamila Peter, Mona Naseer, Sharjeel Shamshir, Sheraz Naseer, Arslan Allah Detta, Zahid Yunas and Shahzad Francis paid a great tribute to their teachers for their commitment, dedication and concern for their total development of their students. They were of the opinion that it is the teacher who can bring change, harmony and peace in the society. Francis Jacob in his presidential speech told the parents and the students that they have failed to pay due respect to the great benefactor of the nation that’s why the teacher of today has lost his interest in his profession. He is no longer a committed and dedicated to his vocation, as a teacher. A better future, depends on better education and better education depends on better teachers, said Mr. Francis Jacob. He stressed upon the parents and the students to give due credit to the teachers and get the best from their learning and experiences. The teachers present in the seminar were presented Happy Teachers Day cards and garlanded with flowers as a token of respect for the teachers.
