The School's International Peace Quilt has now involved 203 Countries in One Wish for Peace all as a celebration of The London 2012 Games. Thank you so much to everyone that has participated.

Moving forward, we now invite each Country to create their very own quilt for RIO 2016 and help us to further promote the OLYMPIC TRUCE which dates back to the original games in the 9th Century BC.

The idea was revived in 1993, when the United Nations passed Resolution 48/11. The central purpose of the Ancient Games was to provide for a pause in the endless cycle of violence through the observance of the Sacred Truce. Our ancient and supposedly less civilised ancestors made it work, NOW let us embrace what is possible for RIO 2016 !

We will welcome a School to Lead the project for your particular Country with the aim to take the project into as many schools as is possible. Please see "Requirements for your Countries Quilt 2016" page for more info.

Joy is a sustained sense of well-being and internal peace - a connection to what matters." Oprah
