In many countries, Teachers’ Days are intended to be special days for the appreciation of teachers; World Teachers’ Day is celebrated across the world on October 5. Ever since the importance of teachers has been recognized by UNESCO, by adopting the “Recommendation concerning the status of teachers”, World Teachers’ Day has been celebrated annually. This includes celebrations to honor the teachers for their special contribution in a particular field area or the community in general.

In Laos, the date is the 7th October. This day is holiday, the schools make a party with students, teachers of course, and villagers.
