The People – Céline Plantain
Céline is a dynamic and inspiring teacher based in Hautmont in NE France. She is just the kind of person that you need in a voluntary project. Living in a part of France where the sacrifice of WW1 is all-around in the many cemeteries, she is dedicated to ensuring that her own students and others understand and respect the history of the Great War. She is a staunch advocate of the Poetry Plane and by her own efforts has reached out 8 French schools who are all writing poems. Not content with this, she has engaged 3 German schools, one Polish and one school in the USA. She is a fantastic Ambassador who in her own words is seeking
‘to bring to life the memory of World War I by embedding a strong message of peace, friendship, and brotherhood into a concrete, collective, and symbolic action. Through writing, nature, and connections with other children around the world, students will become carriers of memory and hope, both today and for the future.’
