    Additionally, students from the 900 Kidzee schools will make cards for their teachers and stamp their hand impressions on a wall, dedicating it to their favourite teacher. Over and above these activities, the students at Mount Litera School will write special messages for their teachers on a wall, make certificates for their teachers to thank them for their support and hard work.
