Teacher Appreciation event



Our local Baha'i community(Holdfast Bay, Adelaide) joined others around Australia on 30th October in celebrating World Teacher's Day. As Baha'is, we take the role of teacher's in society pretty seriously, and as such try to demonstrate the appreciation of the amazing and often unseen work that teachers do by hosting some form of event or gifts for teachers. This year, we decided to offer morning tea to a primary school and kindergarten at the schools. So we all made finger food - cupcakes, fruit platters, etc, and also a thank you fridge magnet pictured above for each staff member. The fridge magnets are available from 'Hidden Words bookshop, Melbourne.
I went to the kindergarten event and the teachers were so appreciative, saying that no one has ever done anything like this for them!
