Voice 1: Well...when I went down I was a wee bit uneasy about going down because of the different religions, but when I got down I learned that just, like, everyone's the same, we learned to get along, now we're like, best friends. All the different areas, they all look the same. It's all like the different things in them is all mostly the same as what's in your own area.

Voice 2: I learned that Catholics and Protestants can get on well together because I made some friends. I was surprised because I didn't think every area was like ours. I thought we were one of a kind. I thought we had nothing until I seen the other places.

Voice 3: From this project I have learned that mixing with people from a Different area brought up in a different religion, brought up to hate each other, that we've mixed very well because we're all the same people. It surprised me a bit that every single area that was involved in the project, all had the similar, you know, lacking of facilities and not very much places to go.

Voice 4: I found it interesting to see how they reacted to working with us as well, to mixing with different religions. We're similar, in some ways. We have different things than other people have in their estate. We have symbols to represent our estate and other people don't.
