The Town's inaugural Peace Pole has been officially unveiled at Millen Primary School.
The idea to install a Peace Pole was first raised by community member Leigh Dix and was subsequently endorsed by Council. The completed project now stands proudly at the local primary school, represented by two separate poles inscribed with the message “May Peace Prevail on Earth” in a range of languages.
English, Noongar, Braille, Mandarin, Nepali, Italian, Cantonese, Indonesian, Hindi and Vietnamese were selected to reflect the cultural and linguistic diversity of our community. Together, the poles symbolise unity, respect and hope for our shared future.
The Town would like to thank the Rotary Club of Cambridge, Rotary Club of Victoria Park, Millen Primary School staff and students, and everyone who attended the opening ceremony for their support. Together, we’ve planted a seed of peace in our Town — and beyond.
The Peace Pole stands as a public declaration of our ongoing commitment to harmony, inclusion and mutual respect.
