To the educators of Ukraine
Dear educators!
I send my sincere greetings to all those who dedicated themselves to the work in the field of education on the occasion of the occupational holiday.
This special holiday unites the people, as it is distinguished by special warmth, love and recognition. Everyone is involved in this celebration, as we all have been pupils and the parents of the pupils.
Your love for children gives an example how to teach them to love, appreciate life and shape a character. Due to such lessons of life, future generation is formed as socially active citizens and ardent patriots.
Despite all the hardships, you managed to continue your noble and beneficial mission and remain a heart of the nation, its strong humanitarian power.
Today, probably more than ever, all the teachers faced an utterly important task not only pass your knowledge to the pupils, but also to teach them how to use this knowledge and be able to distinguish the most essential and precious things among the vast scope of student´s materials and teaching information.
Undoubtedly, the state owed to teachers the payment for their hard work and deserved recognition of their social status. It is a fair reproach to the authority. However, there is strong confidence in the fact that with the stability in the state and development of our economics these issues would be the first to solve.
On the occasion of this remarkable holiday, I wish you all the best and every success in this noble and highly important pursuit. I am convinced: uniting our efforts, we will provide for the decent future of our descendants and the Motherland.
Volodymyr LYTVYN
