Last Friday was the 37th annual International day of Peace, first established by the United Nations General Assembly. It is meant to be a day of ceasefire where there is a concerted effort around the globe to pay heed to, respect and embody, the practice of non-violence. To play our part in this, some of our Year 8 Geography students created and submitted art works to the Peace Pals International Art Exhibition. The theme of this year’s art was; May peace prevail on Earth.
How do we make change in the world? This is a question that often comes up in HSIE. Historically, change has often been alchemised, with sparks ignited through the non-violent yet powerful creations of art and music, protest and prayer. This year, we sent our he(art)s and our prayers, joining 6000 other children from 79 countries around the world. Here are some of Yr 8’s offerings and the certificates they received.
