One of the projects
that the Texans in Scotland and Ireland visited was
The Speedwell Trust.
These are pictures of the children
at Speedwell near Dungannon Co. Tyrone which is a
project that brings Catholic and Protestant school
children together to work on the environment.

The motto is "This is
our land it belongs to us all". Each Catholic
School has to have a Protestant school partner in
order to participate. It has been very successful
in breaking down the barriers and sowing seeds of
peace and reconcilliation with the children.
Supporting the program are the
Australians and the Texans.
Children
are the future
theyre the ones to invest in.
At Speedwell they learn to respect
themselves, each other and
the world we share.
