Peace Day

1. Peace Day
In Spain, schools celebrate Peace Day on 30th January. Peace Day is a day
when we think about respect and friendship, and it’s a celebration of
diversity in our world. People ask for peace and harmony for everyone.
In some schools, children plant trees on Peace Day. Trees are a symbol of
hope and life. Olive trees and the olive branch are symbols of peace. Some
children write poems or make posters.
This is the peace flag. It’s a dove with the branch of an olive tree in its
mouth.
The dove is a symbol of peace.
Let’s make a dove!
1. First, draw around your hand, then cut it out.
2. Write your name and a message of peace on the paper hand.
3. Stick the hands to the drawing of a dove to make the wings and
feathers.
