Teacher's Day is a heartwarming celebration that highlights the great impact teachers have on our lives. When we think of this day, we often think of guidance, support and symbols of our appreciation that teachers have cherished for generations. This year, Nick celebrated the unbreakable bond between teachers and students under their campaign #FeatureYourTeacher which highlights fun ways children express their appreciation for their teachers. Adding to the celebration rooted in creativity and connection, popular Nicktoons Chikoo Bunty visited our capital city, Delhi.
The day began with a visit to Parvarish, a unique school dedicated to the development of children with special needs. Parvarish is renowned for its commitment to supporting and nurturing these exceptional students and Nick's beloved Nicktoons, Chikoo Bunty brought an extra dose of excitement to their Teacher's Day celebrations. The students eagerly crafted heartfelt Teacher's Day cards featuring their teachers, with Chikoo Bunty joining in to help them design and personalize each card. They guided the kids in using vibrant colours, fun stickers, and unique designs, making the experience even more special.
The next stop was Ryan International School, one of the leading school groups in India, where Nick went beyond the classroom and hosted various interactive sessions that transformed classrooms into obstacle courses. In these sessions, the kids took on the role of guides and featured their selected teachers. Then they further helped them navigate through challenges like the Blindfolded Book Balance, where blindfolded teachers attempted to balance books on their heads while walking along a taped line, relying on their students for directions and balance tips. The atmosphere at each location was filled with laughter and creativity, turning simple activities into an unforgettable celebration of gratitude, teamwork, and learning.
Sonali Bhattacharya, Head of Marketing, Kids TV Network, Viacom18 said, `At Nick, our commitment to understanding and nurturing kids is at the core of everything we do. For Teacher's Day, we wanted to deepen the connection between teachers and kids, creating moments that celebrate this special bond in meaningful ways.
