Mervin Alexander<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Dominica Association of Teachers (DAT), led by its President, Mervin Alexander, is gearing up to celebrate World Teacher\u2019s Day on October 6th, 2023, with a day filled with fun and games at Castle Bruce. Alexander expressed his excitement about the day-long event.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are looking forward to having a whole day of fun and games,\u201d Alexander said.<\/p>\n

The association has an array of activities planned, including a public speaking contest and a spelling bee for both primary and secondary school students. The DAT president voiced his anticipation of increased school participation in these events.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Alexander expressed the DAT\u2019s appreciation for the government\u2019s initiative to construct new schools across various island communities. He believes this will significantly alleviate the challenges faced by students and teachers, thereby enhancing the educational environment.<\/p>\n

Mr. Alexander concluded by emphasizing that teaching is more than just a profession. He said it\u2019s a lifelong journey of learning and growth. He encouraged teachers to continue broadening their horizons to provide their students with the best education possible and equip them for future challenges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Dominica Association of Teachers (DAT), led by its President, Mervin Alexander, is gearing up to celebrate World Teacher\u2019s Day on October 6th, 2023, with a day filled with fun and games at Castle Bruce.
