World Peace Day Celebrations: The International Day of Peace (“Peace Day”) is observed around the world each year on 21 September. Established in 1981 by the United Nations, Peace Day is a day for all humanity to commit to Peace above all differences and to contribute to building a Culture of Peace. The International Day of Peace is also a day of ceasefire. The peace dove flying with an olive branch in its beak is one of the most common symbols for the day. Commonly understood as the absence of hostility and retribution, peace also suggests sincere attempts at reconciliation, the existence of healthy or newly healed interpersonal or international relationships, prosperity in matters of social or economic welfare, the establishment of equality, and a working political order that serves the true interests of all. Conversely, at Silver Oaks, while celebrating Peace day, our intent was to get Oakians focused on giving thought to the role each one of us can play. To achieve this objective, Oakians were provided reference context to develop and deliver English Speeches on the theme with topics: “What is peace?”; “Peace in our country”; “Peace for social development”; “Peace begins with a smile”; “Creating a culture of peace”; “United Nations for a peaceful world” and “Let’s make peace, not war”. Pupils of pre-school enjoyed white color day with Story Presentation activities. R&R / Project Presentation Activity: Reading (Grades 1- 5) & Research (Grades 6-8) Projects are an integral part of learning at Silver Oaks.
