Teacher’s play an important part in the formative years of an individual. They influence their thought process, shape up their personalities and make them the human being that they are. September 5 is observed as Teacher’s Day every year to honour the bond between the children and their mentors who influence lives in several ways.
September 5 also marks the birthday of Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan, who was also the second president of India. Radhakrishnan remained a teacher throughout his life and believed that teachers shape the best minds in the nation. In India, September 5 is marked as Teacher’s Day, whereas World Teacher’s Day is celebrated every year on October 5.
Here are a few messages to honour and show gratitude to all mentors and teachers
