FESTIVALS: Peace Day

Last Tuesday, the 30th of January, we celebrated the International School Day of Peace and Non-Violence. But do you know what peace is?  What does peace mean to you? Take a look at this video for some ideas...

Some of the words mentioned on the video are diversity, tolerance, friendship, ... Based on that, we created our FLOWERS FOR PEACE including some powerful words related to it.  

We also had the chance to meet Marta, a corageous Ukrainian mother who came to Spain a year ago with her 4 kids, now students in our school. She was a Spanish and English teacher in Ukraine, and she shared her knowledge with us. She talked about the beauty of her country and her experience as a refugee in Coruña. She traced her route to come to Spain in a map, mentioning all the places they lived in before ending in our town. She really appreciates all the support and help she is receiving and she hopes they will be able to come back to their country soon.

Thank you for your courage and generosity, Marta! All the best!!!
