'We hear you'
Special dedication for them on Teachers' Day next year
Letter from Christine Chen President, Association for Early Childhood Educators Singapore 05:55 AM Sep 07, 2009

I REFER to "Why leave us out" (Sept 3).

We early childhood educators are a special breed who are often forgotten. It is in this belief of building foundations for learning that we carry out our professional responsibilities quietly and tenaciously, reassuring each other that indeed, we make a difference. We give without expecting any return but being affirmed once in a year - like what Mr George Lee has said - would indeed help.

Mr Lee's letter gave the Association for Early Childhood Educators Singapore an opportunity to reflect. As such, in 2010, the association will indeed affirm all early childhood educators with a special dedication on Teachers' Day for the important role that they play, not only in "foundation building", but also nation building.
