‘Dream Big’ for your teacher
Teacher at Ocho Rios Primary School in St Ann Ann-Marie Stanford and 11-year-old student Dacia Lobban share a light moment together. Stanford was one of three winners in ICWI's Teachers' Day competition last year.

‘Dream Big’ for your teacher

THE Insurance Company of the West Indies (ICWI) is encouraging students at the primary, preparatory, and high school levels to recognise outstanding teachers by nominating them in its ‘Dream Big’ campaign.

This Teachers’ Day, May 2, three teachers will each receive a dream gift as indicated by their student nominee.

ICWI believes teachers play a crucial role in shaping society’s future by educating and inspiring the next generation to think critically and creatively. We want to recognise their hard work and dedication. We want to motivate them to continue making a positive impact on our children’s lives, despite the challenges they face.

“ICWI is proud to support our children to make their teachers’ dreams come true. We believe that at the heart of every thriving society are its educators. We recognise and applaud teachers’ unwavering dedication to shaping our future generations. Your hard work and commitment to our children’s education is truly invaluable, and we are grateful for all that you do,” said Vice-President, Marketing and Human Resources Samantha Samuda.

The company rewarded three teachers during its Teachers’ Day campaign last year.

“Based on the success and impact of that initiative, it was an easy decision to do something similar this year. We want to continue to show appreciation for our teachers while fostering our children’s development.”

This year, children across Jamaica are encouraged to show appreciation for their favourite teacher by submitting an essay of 500 words or less. This essay should explain how their teachers encouraged them to dream big. Students also get the chance to suggest a gift for their nominated teachers.

Nominations close April 29, 2023.

More information on the ICWI’s ‘Dream Big’ campaign can be found at the ICWI’s Facebook and Instagram pages @icwi_jamaica or by visiting www.icwidreambig.promo.

ICWI is one of the leading insurance companies in Jamaica. The company was founded in 1968 and currently operates in the British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Saint Maarten, Trinidad and Tobago, St Kitts, The Bahamas, Jamaica, Dominica, and Turks and Caicos Islands.
