WORLD TEACHERS' DAY CELEBRATED

Released on October 5, 2000

11,000 Saskatchewan teachers will join 55 million colleagues around the world

as they are honoured with their own day for celebration and praise. World

Teachers Day takes place Thursday, October 5, 2000.



World Teachers' Day is proclaimed yearly by the United Nations Educational,

Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to celebrate the contributions of

teachers for serving 1 billion students and to give them a day to voice their

concerns and priorities. This year's theme is "Teachers Expanding Horizons".



"I am pleased that one of my tasks as Education Minister is to add my voice to

those around the world praising teachers," Education Minister Jim Melenchuk

said. "Teachers in Saskatchewan have in their hands the exciting challenge of

preparing Saskatchewan children to be tomorrow's leaders and to move this

province forward in the new millennium."



Minister Melenchuk noted Saskatchewan teachers have been key players in

developments such as Saskatchewan's world-class curriculum and the award-

winning Community Schools program.



"Teachers in this province want all Saskatchewan students, regardless of

circumstance, to have their horizons expanded through education," Melenchuk

said.



UNESCO first proclaimed world Teachers' Day in 1994.
