The Marymount School in Italy formed a human circle of more than 700 people which included students,faculty and staff who all joined hands in a display of school unity to celebrate International Peace Day on September 21st. This activity included a moment of silence where everyone said a prayer for World Peace.

We look forward to the quilt visiting this school next year.
