St Vincent's Sound Bell for Peace
There was a resounding message of peace and unity at the official opening of the Canberra Rotary World Peace Bell on February 23 as the voices of St Vincent’s Primary School Aranda choir echoed out over Lake Burley Griffin.
Principal Lina Vigliotta stood proud as two St Vincent’s students read an uplifting poem and rang the bell for peace that the School had compassionately raised money for in support of the project.
The symbolic World Peace Bell is one of twenty-four around the globe, cast from the coins of the United Nations, serving as a constant reminder that war and violence is never the answer.
There is no doubt that the bell will become an iconic part of Lennox Gardens, as peace continues to ring out across Canberra.
