Peace Poems at Assembly
Next week is Peace Week. We will be connecting with a school in Pakistan- a place that is not as peaceful as ours. We have been writing "Peace" poems and will share these with the school in Pakistan.
This is shared writing by Nicola's literacy group:
Peace is
A calm, graceful day
A friendly, open hand
Friendship and calmness
Peace is
A serene jungle
A good day
When families come together
Love on Valentines Day
Peace is
Relaxing on a hot, sunny beach
Wedding bells ringing
A world without rubbish
A calm ocean with lots of life
Peace is
A quiet library
Showing empathy
4 am in the morning
Peace is
Breathing deeply in and out from your lungs
Starry Matariki at night
A smile
A beautiful sunrise
Reading a good book
Peace is…
A place to understand
Sitting in a spa with jets and bubbles
Feeling the sand between my toes
Snuggling in your bed with your teddy
Sleeping in a cosy bed with soft pillows and a blanket
