PUPILS from Keighley were taken on a two-day visit to an event in Cardiff to help promote world peace.
The group of year eight children from Worth Valley Primary School attended the World Peace Mala event at Llandaff Cathedral.
This was one year on from Worth Valley Primary becoming the first school in Yorkshire to become a Peace Mala accredited school.
Peace Mala is an organisation launched following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, that encourages friendship and peace between people of different cultures and faiths.
The children from Keighley were invited to represent Yorkshire at the occasion in Cardiff.
Accompanying them were four members of staff, including head teacher Rimah Aasim and nursery teacher Julie Batey.
Ms Batey said: "The children had been working hard learning a specially composed Peace Mala anthem called 'One Light', which was sung by all represented Peace Mala schools from Keighley, Wales and Manchester.
"The ceremony was attended by many local dignitaries and also by a lot of faith representatives who had travelled from across the world."
