Peace Poles on the Walking Path/Garden – 6th
September 2016
I visited the
Teesdale Peace Pole park and walk just outside the store and
school. Five Peace Poles are planted in a beautiful setting where children and
adults walk to and from school, or just for a stroll on a walking path. Peter Clapinski made the
poles and they were 'planted' quite a while ago, but I'd never been to see
them.
The languages represented on
these poles are Scottish, Persian, Irish, Sudanese, Dutch, Spanish, Italian,
Maltese, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Japanese, Philippine, English, Main give peace a
chance, Wathaurong, German, Croatian, Serbian and Hungarian.
The Wathaurong was ‘Mok barra
tjarra ngitj ba ngawirring, tjarra ngitj.
It was a glorious day out in
the countryside, blessed by golden fields of canola.
