Teachers’ Day: Domino’s honours teachers with free pizzas

Teachers’ Day, celebrated on May 16 in Malaysia, is a special day for the appreciation of teachers who have an impact in our lives long after we leave our schooling years. Their contribution and guidance shape a person’s mindset, personality and confidence to reach for their dreams.

In conjunction with Teachers Day, Domino’s Pizza Malaysia commemorated and honoured the members of this noble profession by distributing over 100 delectable pizzas to 100 teachers nationwide, as a gesture of its appreciation for their contribution, love and support as they shape the future leaders of the nation.

“Teachers play an integral role in our lives as they mold the next generation. With schools being closed amid the current Covid-19 situation, we are aware that teachers are still actively carrying out e-learning through various platforms. This goes to show that even a pandemic can’t break their spirits and passion for teaching their students and for this we truly salute all teachers,” said Linda Hassan, group chief marketing officer of Domino’s Pizza Malaysia and Singapore

“We understand the recent months have been challenging. The typical school routine has changed significantly for students and teachers all around the world. Today, we celebrate their dedication, tenacity and enthusiasm for teaching. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for stepping up to the plate and for shouldering this very important responsibility of teaching our future generation. Your creativity, adaptive strategies and care for our children is truly admirable. 

“With our contribution, we also hope to fulfill many students’ wishes to give back to their teachers on this special day,” she added.

Cikgu Ainul Mardiah from SK Dr Sulaiman,Tampin who received the free pizza said, “I would like to thank Domino’s for the support and joy that is spread to teachers nationwide. These past few months presented mixed situations to students nationwide. While some were coping with learning from home there were also others who faced limitations for this. I sincerely hope for all of the students to keep their spirits high during this pandemic.”
