The twinning event will take place at the Christmas Carol Service 19th December, 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UPDATED 16\/12\/19<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>North Coast Integrated College Peace Field Project<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remembering the\nimportance of Peace at Christmas<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Even in the darkest of life experiences there are opportunities to show humanity and kindness; this was evident when over 100 years ago in World War 1 when there was a truce on Christmas day. On Thursday 19<sup>th<\/sup> December during our Christmas Carol Service we will formally twin our playing pitch at North Coast Integrated College with Flanders Peace Field. This is a symbolic twinning which will encourage pupils to learn about the First World War and the importance of respect for people on different sides- both on and off the pitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The strong\nintegrated ethos at North Coast Integrated College provides a learning\nenvironment that promotes good relations among everyone in the school\ncommunity. We believe that the curriculum of our integrated school encourages\npupils to learn from History to shape the future. In Northern Ireland we are\nbuilding peace and it is important that our young people learn and remember the\ndevastation that conflict can bring. In World War 1 soldiers from all sides of\nIreland bravely fought and died side by side. The bullets, bombs, gas and\nbarbed wire didn\u2019t care what religion their victims were.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aim of the Peace Field Project is to create peace makers for the future.&nbsp; Young people (inspired by the 1914 Christmas Truce) will absorb the essence of why fair play is important and begin to understand that sport can transcend conflict and cement friendships for life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is fitting that in the year that Northern Ireland Council for\nIntegrated Education and the Integrated Education Fund were nominated for the\nNobel Peace Prize that North Coast Integrated College highlights the importance\nor respect and fair play for all our young people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Poem excerpt from Carol Ann Duffy, Poet Laureate<\/strong>.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Christmas Truce<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>All night, along the Western Front, they sang, the enemies- carols, hymns, folk songs.
