Nurturing Peace

Students attending Integration Department of the Primary School of Ancient Epidaurus, in collaboration with the 4th grade, created this radio message. This is their attempt to express, in an imaginative way, that hope is born when children grow up by learning how to think, to express themselves and love each other.

Alien: I am Pat, the alien. I see fireworks from my planet. I came here because I thought you were celebrating.
Kid1: These aren’t fireworks.
Kid2: We are not celebrating.
Kid3: This is war.
Alien: What is war?
Kid4: War is pain.
Kid5: War is violence.
Kid6: War is happening when adults use guns instead of dialogue.
Alien: What are you doing about that?
Kid1: We learn how to discuss.
Kid2: We learn how to think.
Kid3: We learn how to love.
Everyone: Because peace is in our hands.
