PeaceTreeSpirit - Postcard project by Kids!!

Peace Tree Day Introduction

Peace Tree Day, inspired by the award-winning film The Peace Tree by Mitra Sen, is an annual festival for children and families of every culture and faith to celebrate peace and diversity TOGETHER! Children around the world are creating Peace Trees that highlight symbols from all our cultures and faiths on one tree to reflect the beauty of 'diversity in unity'. Peace Tree Day, which takes place on June 1st every year, is celebrated in cities, organizations, classrooms, homes and through school boards. The festival inspires children to take pride in their heritage and to share it with others, while also discovering the vibrant cultures, traditions and festivals arounds the world. It is also a time to encourage young people to share their talents and develop compassion for others. Students from diverse backgrounds will work together by combining elements from different cultures, to create new forms of art, which will help raise funds to assist underprivileged children around the globe. Peace Tree Day will inspire young people to contribute to society while they explore and celebrate the beauty of every culture and faith to create peace in our world.

This is the first set of post cards that were sent across the Planet and is just the beginning to the wonderful chain of Love and Peace and it has started in one part of the Planet! The kids will make friends with their counterparts who live in other parts of the Planet and by the time they grow up, they will have friends all over the world, erase differences, share knowledge and thoughts and create a better world for all of us to live in!!! These post cards have gone to the public school in Ontario, Canada and the kids there have already started getting in touch with the Siragu kids. They would be having another session of the WWPCS (as you all know that it stands for World Wide Post Card Sharing) and send the cards across the Planet!
