"Each peace pole has then been placed somewhere that members of the community can enjoy too.”
She is now encouraging people to try and find them all. Peace pole packs are available from participating schools.
Other first and primary schools which have taken part are: Cragside in Cramlington, Grangeview in Widdrington, Longhoughton, Morpeth All Saints, Northumberland CofE Academy Bishops Primary School, Shanklea, Shilbottle and Tritlington.
