On Thursday 14 June 2018, Her Excellency Mrs Minda Calaguian-Cruz Ambassador for the Philippines, her staff members and the members of the Loboc Childrens Choir attended the Canberra Rotary Peace Bell within Lennox Gardens to mark the occasion of the 120th Anniversary of Philippines Independence.
Also in attendance were Mr Rolly Tompsett, Chair Shelter Box Australia, Mr Greg Gibbs Incoming President Rotary Club of Canberra Burley Griffin and Michael Rabey Coordinator Canberra Rotary Peace Bell.
Those present enjoyed a brief ceremony and all assembled rang the Canberra Rotary Peace Bell. Afterwards the children sang a beautiful song of Peace for those present. The weather was very cold, especially for the children having just arrived from the Philippines but the spirts were warm and wishes of Peace in the World, Peace between neighbours and Peace in the Home were sent to the world.
If you would like to arrange a special ringing event for your own organisation, please contract the coordinator@canberrapeacebell.org
