One Voice": A Song for Peace

Angela Wong, Music teacher

In an effort to share a message of peace and unity, ISB community members ranging from PreK1 to adult faculty and parents voluntarily learned the song “One Voice” (by Ruth Moody of “The Wailin’ Jennys”) and submitted videos for this project. The result is a beautiful representation of our school community, highlighting the importance of using our voices together as “One Voice” to fight injustice and create peace.

Peace Day

Jo Nichols, Art teacher

Peace day is always a wonderful celebration at ISB, and this year the ES art team created an art installation of hundreds of birds flying through the corridors of the school to bring awareness to Peace Day. All students in elementary worked on the creation of the Birds. The younger students printed fabric and the older ones had fun twisting and cutting wire to support their wings, and combined found objects into the form of birds. When many hands work together great things can happen, and through art work that is created by our ES community we can see the strength and power in working together. PEACE!
