Innovative curriculum which studied and celebrated the United Nations' International Day of Sport for Development and Peace, 2015:
"On 6 April, Saint Peter’s School in Chattanooga, Tennessee, celebrated the IDSDP with a variety of activities: peace symbols, sportsmanship videos learning about inclusive sport, blind soccer, the haka, making IDSDP posters, studying Kipling's 'If' and applying his teachings to sport and making giant Muhammad Alis, each themed to one of Ali's six core principles."

What do the haka, Rudyard Kipling poems and Muhammad Ali cut-outs have in common?
