"School Day of Non-Violence and Peace"

Every 30th January we celebrate the "School Day of Non-violence and Peace".

But why?. Because we commemorate the day when Mahatma Ghandi was killed. He believed in non-violence to fight for human rights.

And in USA they observe another day in January as a date for peace, 15th January, because Martin Luther King was born that day in 1929.

But, what do they have in common?.

They stood up against things that were unfair... but peacefully!. They had a dream and they fought for it with non-violence and peace.

Nelson Mandela has the same dream as Ghandi and Martin Luther King, so this year 2.014 we will celebrate the "School Day of Non-Violence and Peace" at Garre Alpañez school with activities related to this nice and tenacious man.
