Peace Pole

Wednesday, August the 6th was Hiroshima Day. The day when world history was made as the world’s first atomic bomb was dropped on the innocent people of Hiroshima.

Here at ASSoE, we commemorated the installation of a peace pole donated to us by the Rotary Club. The ceremony was attended by Dr Amanda Ruler and Dr Nick Wickham of the Medical Association for the Prevention of War, by our principal, Anti Macri, class 36, and two students, Mahdia Noori from class 3 and Mursal Gardezi from class 13, who hosted the event.

The presentation included speeches to highlight the evils of war, poetry, and a call to action to promote peace around our school, and around the world.

The peace pole will now be permanently housed in our school peace garden, for every adult and child to see and reflect on.
