A Peace Project celebrating 100 years since the foundation of Rotary was initiated in 2021.
The original idea was for 100 Rotary Clubs from around Australia, to be invited by the Rotary Club of Canberra Burley Griffin, to become involved in this joint Centenary Project by donating a peace pole to a primary school in their area.
This has now exceeded all expectations.
Now, there is no limit on the number of schools or poles that can form part of the project in fact the project has now passed over 600 Peace Poles donated with poles now located in every state and territory of Australia.
The Rotary Club of Fairy Meadow is proud to have three schools with Peace Poles:
Fairy Meadow Demonstration School,
Towradgi Primary Scool
and Cringila Primary School.
All schools participate in the United Nations International Day of Peace Ceremony attended by one or more of our Rotarians in September each year.
