Hello Families!
We know your child is excited to bring home the KES Peace Day Heart photo! Our challenge is to spread peace throughout our community! Please see Mrs. Patterson’s post below—
On Friday, 9/21/18, our school celebrated International Peace Day by participating in a school wide assembly and recognized ways to be peaceful. When we find our own sense of peace, then we can share it with others. At KES we show our support for peace by being kind, loving, compassionate, and empathetic with each other. Each KES student will receive a copy of a picture of our entire school in the shape of a heart. Students were challenged by Mrs. Patterson to support peace in our school and community by sharing this picture with an individual person, a group of people or perhaps in a local community organization. Students can write a note on the heart, color a picture, or just post the picture somewhere. The purpose of this activity is to encourage our students to think about ways to share peace within their community and to also advertise that KES students promote peace. We look forward to hearing how KES hearts have made a difference in our community.
Our hope is that you personalize this challenge to spread much needed peace throughout our community!
We would LOVE for you to bring your KES Peace Day Heart photo somewhere special to you and your family. Tell them about your mission to spread love, peace, and acceptance. Take a photo of your family donating your heart to someone in our community—whether that be a favorite store, restaurant, church, special neighbor, grandparent, family member, you name it! Share it on our blog! It would be amazing to see how far we can reach in our quest for peace! Visiting a family member in the future? Take the KES Peace Heart with you and share our message! We would LOVE to see us work together to make a difference in our world through our blog!
Good luck in spreading world peace!
Twin Hickory Library! Thanks, Kailey!
Great job, Kailey!
Graham’s Peace Day photo is headed to Macy’s in Cincinnati, OH. He shared his photo with his grandmother last night, and he asked her to hang it where she works. What a fabulous project!
Great thinking, Graham! I can’t wait to see our KES peace heart in Macy’s! Ask grandma to take a picture for us!
