International Day of Peace

11/14/2024

Kids strike a pose behind the peace decor for the DEI International Day of Peace. It was peace day on Friday and North Cross decided to spread some cheer by organizing fun activities for the Lower, Middle and Upper School students. The faculty put together a posing poster that comes with fun accessories such as circular glasses (Gandhi and John Lennon made them famous) and peace sign necklaces. There were also posters all around, bringing in students to promptly pose with their friends. There was also a temporary tattoo table with eight different tattoo designs to choose from and sponges and water to stick it right on to your skin Lots of kids, especially the younger ones, were more than excited to pose as soon as they saw all of the fun colors! “I love your glasses,” Abby Landry ‘26 said enthusiastically to one of the first graders posing in the picture.
