By the Secretary of the SayPro Royal Committee- Mary Mapula Malebe
Good morning, esteemed educators, honoured guests, SayPro colleagues, and dear learners.
It is my great honour to address you today as the Secretary of the SayPro Royal Committee, on this important occasion — Teacher Appreciation Day 2025.
Today, we gather to say two simple yet powerful words: “Thank You.”
Thank you to the teachers who rise early, who stay late, who give more than what is asked. Thank you for your patience when the lesson gets tough, your strength when the journey gets long, and your belief in every learner — even when they struggle to believe in themselves.
As Secretary of the Committee, I have the privilege of documenting the work we do — the plans, the policies, the goals. But I also have the deeper privilege of witnessing the people behind the progress. And our teachers stand at the heart of every achievement we celebrate.
You are record keepers of dreams, guardians of knowledge, and builders of character. With every word of encouragement, every lesson taught, and every young mind guided — you shape our future.
SayPro exists to develop, empower, and uplift communities — and you, our teachers, are our greatest partners in this mission. You carry out the work that transforms lives and strengthens nations.
On behalf of the entire SayPro Royal Committee, I want to affirm that we see your efforts, we value your commitment, and we honour your sacrifice.
Let this day be a reminder that your work matters. You matter.
May your dedication be met with appreciation, may your challenges be met with support, and may your passion continue to light the way for generations to come.
Happy Teacher Appreciation Day 2025!
Thank you.
