We could see that although children haven't got as many books, toys, food or medicines as we have, they are happy. Music by children from Link-Up Cameroon

Everyone wrote a message on a coloured feather to fill in a big Peace Dove. Older children also wrote a Peace Decalogue. We decorated our school with different peace symbols and peace wishes that everybody could read and reflect upon.

In the afternoon, we gathered in the playground, read poems and sang a peace song. Then we all joined in a dance. It was very funny!

Would you like to join us virtually?
