Thank you to each and every teacher

World Teachers Day, inaugurated on 5 October 1994 by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO), is celebrated in more than 100 countries world-wide and recognises the very important role that teachers play in society. Internationally, the day is held on the first Friday of October however, due to Australian school holidays, we celebrate on the last Friday in October. On Friday 28 October the TRB will join the Council of Education Associations of SA for their annual awards ceremony that acknowledges and celebrates educators and the professional associations that support them.
