World Peace Day

We celebrated World Peace Day at school on Friday, 20th September.  Under beautiful skies, our march over to the school field was symbolic.

Sitting down on the grass, in the formation of the peace symbol, we observed a minute of silence.  Some of the poems that the children wrote on that day are now on display in the school hall.

Our reflections and prayers go out to those who are suffering because of lack of peace for various reasons.
