The Rotary Club of Antigua has unveiled a Peace Pole at Clare Hall Secondary School, marking a significant step in promoting peace and unity within the community. The installation, which took place recently, serves as a powerful symbol of hope, compassion, and the collective aspiration for a harmonious society. The Peace Pole carries a profound message: ‘Peace begins within—through thought, word, and action.’ It is designed to inspire students to embody peace in their daily lives, whether at home, in the classroom, or in their broader interactions. Rotary officials emphasized that the project aligns with the organization’s core principle of ‘Service Above Self,’ reflecting their commitment to fostering positive change. In a statement, the club expressed their vision for the monument: ‘Our mission shines brightest when rooted in hope. May this Peace Pole inspire a generation to lead with kindness and create a future filled with peace.’ The Rotary Club of Antigua has a long-standing history of contributing to education, health, and community development initiatives across the island, and this latest project underscores their dedication to nurturing a culture of peace among the youth.
