Each morning the children at East Falmouth Elementary School say the Peacebuilders Pledge:
I am a peacebuilder,
I pledge:
- to praise people
- to give up put downs
- to seek wise people as advisors and friends
- to notice the hurts I have caused and make amends
- to right wrongs
- to help others
I will build peace at home, at school, and in my community and each day.
I think all the children in the elementary schools in Falmouth say this pledge. That’s approximately 1,300 or more children. These are beautiful words spoken from the heart about how to behave, build community and live in a town, a country, a world with one another.
