Today at Tembelihle High School in Khayelitsha students gathered round to watch their two top teams play a seven-a-side soccer match in recognition of Peace Day. Tembelihle High School is one of over 30 schools participating in the One Day One Goal initiative in South Africa. Initiated by the Umtapo Peace Center in Durban–the largest and most accomplished Peace center in South Africa–the schools were encouraged to sign up to play soccer matches in recognition of peace.
