Disney
will be giving out special Teachers Day cards
to kids during a specially conducted school contact
programme - 'Mazey Ki Class'. This distribution was
done in close to 230 schools across six cities and
reached approximately 180,000 kids through this exercise.
The kids were given one card each as well as a leaflet
with a simple contest.
The
contest will ask kids to write in the name of their
favourite teacher and ask why they would want
to take their teacher out for dinner. Twenty five
lucky kids whose answers are most interesting will
get to take his/her favourite teacher for dinner.
