All in our school community are invited to participate in Pink Shirt Day on Wednesday, 28 February by wearing a pink top. This anti-bullying campaign began several years ago in Nova Scotia after a group of students rallied around a Grade 9 boy who was being bullied for wearing a pink shirt. Students showed their support by distributing pink shirts throughout the school. Their kindness caught on and now schools throughout North America wear pink shirts twice a year in order to show their resistance to bullying in schools, workplaces and online.
