Welcome October! A Month for Mental Well-being, Empathy & Peace 🍂✨

As we enter Global Mental Health Awareness Month, we invite our community to join us in nurturing emotional growth, kindness, and deep human connection.
At The Peace School, we believe mental health is far more than the absence of illness—it is learning the art of loving ourselves, caring for others, and building a peaceful world for our children.

Key Days We Honor This Month:
💚 Oct 1–7: Mental Illness & Bullying Prevention Week
🧠 Oct 10: World Mental Health Day
👧 Oct 11: International Day of the Girl Child
🌱 Oct 17: World Trauma Awareness Day

May this season invite us to listen deeper, speak with kindness, and remember that caring for our mental health is a continuous act of love.
Wishing you and your family inner peace and resilience.

Family Education at The Peace School 🌿

Family education is a vital pillar of our programs at The Peace School.

Alongside our work with children, we offer a variety of educational initiatives designed for parents and caregivers. We believe that families need to walk hand-in-hand with their children on this educational journey, actively engaging in their growth, learning, and development.

International Day of Peace

September 21 marks the International Day of Peace.

In its message for this day, the United Nations has once again emphasized the vital need to focus on educational programs in schools to promote a culture of peace.

Students need to experience the core principles of a culture of peace in their schools every day. They should live and practice mutual understanding, coexistence, and participation daily with their teachers and classmates.

Schools must prepare students for a peaceful world free of war.
Happy International Day of Peace to all students, families, and teachers!

Happy September!

September has arrived!

It brings a fresh opportunity to reconnect—with children, friends, and family.

In shared spaces together, children learn friendship, dialogue, collaboration, and resolving conflict. Within the family, they build a foundation of safety, love, and belonging.

Let’s use every opportunity these days to come together, talk, and create meaningful moments.

Happy School Year 2026-2027!

This school year, we are focusing on what matters most: building a strong, caring community. 🌼

School is a place to live our shared values out loud every day. It is a space where emotional growth, empathy, and kindness are just as important as academic learning. We are here to listen, to lift each other up, and to ensure every student feels safe, seen, and truly valued for who they are. Together, we are creating a heart-centred environment where we can all grow as whole people.

Welcome back to a year of deep connections, shared values, and beautiful growth! 🎒🌱💞

🎙️ The Peace School featured on Silver Lining for Learning

What can small schools offer us when we think about the future of education?

In Episode 276 of Silver Lining for Learning, the conversation explores “Small Schools: A More Human Future for Education”, looking at how smaller learning communities can create more personal, meaningful, and human-centred educational experiences.

The Peace School was introduced during the conversation as one example of a small school, with some of our experiences and the ideas behind our humanistic approach to education discussed as part of the episode.

For us, being a small humanistic school is not simply about size. It is about creating a learning community where relationships matter, students are known and heard, and there is room to explore different ways of learning and growing together.

We’re grateful to have our experience included in this broader conversation about what the future of education can look like.
