This Kid Surprises His Teacher By Gifting Her An Actual Chicken For Teacher Day
While the hard work teachers do to educate our younger generation often goes unnoticed, one day a year they get special attention — it’s during the teacher’s day. On this special day, students bring small gifts to their teachers as a sign of appreciation. And while most of them gift flowers, sweets, chocolate and prepares little notes, recently one boy surprised her teacher with something seriously unexpected — a chicken.

Well, it’s safe to say that the little boy made the teacher’s day very memorable for Talon Claude who lives and teaches third-graders in General Santos City, Philippines.
The teacher posted pictures of her special gift on her facebook and wrote “It doesn’t matter how expensive or how cheap it is. It’s always the thought that counts.”
Claude, who works at Banwalan Primary School told SunStar that a day before the teacher’s day she encouraged to bring something for the teachers at the school. One student asked Claude if he could bring her a chicken.
“There are only three of us, teachers, so I told the students to bring something and give to any of us. One of the students asked if he can bring a chicken. I said yes as long as it is from the heart and his parents are aware. I told them they can give whatever they want” she told SunStar.
However, the teacher didn’t expect to actually receive a chicken, as she initially thought it was a joke. “I was shocked. I thought it was just a joke. One of the teachers suggested that we cook and eat it. But I wanted to document it first because it was my first time to receive a chicken”.
The teacher gracefully accepted the generous yet unexpected gift and had a good laugh with her colleagues.

I suppose it depends on where you are in the world. I imagine this is somewhat common in rural areas. I have a relative who was a school teacher in a rural part of Illinois at the turn of the 20th Century, she got home-canned vegetables and jams from her students.

That chicken is a gem for those who are living in rural parts of that country. So that shows how they value their teacher for giving it away. ♥ All the love for you kiddo :*

Makes it all the sadder that they want to cook and eat it. It was probably providing eggs for the kid's family and now that value will be gone in one meal.
