PreK, Kindergarten & 1st graders at Charles Ellis helped celebrate International Peace Day by participating in activities to promote world peace. Throughout the day, students donned white doves as symbols of international peace and lessons of personal peace were demonstrated in each classroom. Children read stories of peace and illustrated the importance of promoting peace throughout the world. Each student made a Peace Mala, a symbolic bracelet that promotes friendship, respect and peace between all people in the world. Parents packed the front yard of Charles Ellis to watch their young children sing “I Think You’re Wonderful,” “Light a Candle for Peace, “I’m a Peacekeeper” & “Go Now in Peace.” By teaching these young students about respecting and taking care of each other we are helping to create a better world for their future.
