We aim to do a book about peace in the ENO Programme. This book would consist of 365 stories or fairy tales about peace, a story for each day of year. This book is for everybody who wants to start his/her day with reading a peace story: teachers, students, parents, children, world leaders.
Theme for stories or fairy tales is peace. Theme can be seen freely: it can be a short one but maximum one paper (A4). Writers are children from ENO schools, 6 – 16 yrs from all around the world.
This peace book is to be published in the general summit of UN 21st of September 2010 . In the same occasion books are given to world leaders there. Parts of it will be also published here online, to celebrate ENO Tree Planting Day and ENO 10th anniversary (2000-2010).
We will start to collect these stories immediately today 15th of November 2010. The ultimate deadline for submissions is 28th of February 2010.
1. ENO contact teacher at each participating school will ask their students to write peace stories. Each school will choose 3 stories, translate them into English and send them separately using this form.Stories can also be in Spanish or French but we hope that they would be in English
2. Authors (Mika and Esko-Pekka) will choose the stories for the book.
3. Some stories will be also available online by 21st of September 2010.

Hi from Mauritius
We are from Ecole du Centre, Saint Pierre, MAURITIUS (Indian Ocean). All the students and teachers gathered together to celebrate this great event. Three endemic trees (Aphloia theiformis, Begonia salaziensis, Dracaena concinna) were planted in the school playground by a class of 11 years old students. The tree planting exercise helped our students understand the importance of our beautiful Mauritian flora and lead them to a greater appreciation of the importance of our environnement in our lives.

From Izmir, Turkey
We are TR02 Hilal Necmiye Primary School from İzmir, Turkey. We celebrated the event with a little delay this year because of our holiday season for the Ramadan Festival. We celebrated the day on October 9th with a great participation of local authorities, TV stations and reporters, our new children and babies, our teachers, environment foundations. We were about 50 people on a erosion field near Bornova, the place we lived, in İzmir. It was really great. The same night we had our place in a TV program and the other day lots of newspapers again. We planted over 300 trees this year and total amount of the trees we planted recently in 5 years to the number of 13.000. We are very happy. And we also very happy to be a part of ENO family.

All the nursery's in Alaska told me that where we live, the best time to plant trees is in the spring. Most dealers stop selling trees in late July! We'll see how our tulips do in the spring in honor of ENO Tree Planting day!"
