Tsirangtoe Central School Observes Teachers’ Day

The otherwise unkempt Tsirangtoe playfield was a riot of colour on May 2, 2018 – the venue for Teachers’ Day Celebration. Bright sleekly flags ruffled in the gentle irregular spring northern breeze. Dazzling balloons soared high up in the air like birds of paradise. A blanket of emerald pine needles was a sight for sore eyes. 

Teachers were received with scout procession to the decorated tent, embellished with beautiful mosaic of words and pictures. A chorus of greeting speeches harmonised with the splendour of the day, bringing incessant emotions and inspirations.       

The day started with the lighting of butter lamp by the teachers. It was exactly a metaphor to the common dream and aspiration of all teachers, where they glow with such brilliance just to eliminate darkness in student’s early journey of their life. 

The symbolic teachers’ day cake cutting was the core of the celebration. It symbolizes the extraordinary bond between the teachers and students of this school. It is also a symbol of hundreds of gratitude from the students conjoined together on this special day. 

The festive ground was filled with strains of melodies and angelic dances. In addition, there were also some exciting games that amplified excitement on the day. The joy on the day was beyond bound, and it stimulated both the teachers and students with instinctive indelible commitment to be an ideal teacher and student.   

The formal ‘teachers’ day’ in Bhutan was first observed on May 2, 2003.
