Peace
Day
NORTHERN IRELAND
All United Nations member countries agreed to celebrate September 21, The International Day of Peace
as a Global Ceasefire and Day of Peace & Nonviolence in our homes,
our communities and between nations. Peace Day has been a focal point
for community-uniting and peace-inspiring events since its inception
in 1981.
Together we can create a more peaceful, just and sustainable world,
one heart, one family, one community at a time. Join the Countdown To
Peace and help inspire your community to create humanity's first day
of peace, ever.

All pupils are wearing a white ribbon to signify their committment
to peace. We have been exploring the topic of bullying as a means
of some peace in school. We promote a safe school environment and
abhor violence, knives and any weapons of assault. We are joining
ten other schools to sing 'No war willstop us singing' as
a cross community effort to promote peace in Northern Ireland. . |
