Memorial

Tonight, 2 months after the bomb in Oslo and the shootings on Utøya, we, as a Nordic United World College, had a memorial for those who was killed and those who were touched by this.

It was all planned and done by the Norwegian students and I must say it was the most touching and most beautiful thing I've been to.

With music, quotes, silence, candles and each other, the room was filled with tears and broken hearts. It was so unique to have so many representatives from different countries really coming together as one - Uniting.

"UWC makes education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future."

I think everyone felt that tonight, we stood together as one and knew why we were here. We were truly there for each other and without words, I think everyone felt how we are one big family at this place.

It was amazingly touching and hard, but I think it will help us as a college, to move on and continue our daily life, of course always with the memory of those lost.
