Pink Shirt Day

A Grade 9 student wore a pink polo shirt, a hand-me-down from his sister, on his first day of school.  Bullies harassed the boy, called him a homosexual for wearing pink, and threatened to beat him up.  Two Grade 12 students heard the news and decided to take action.  They went to a nearby discount store and bought 50 pink shirts to wear to school the next day.  They then emailed all their classmates to get them on board and the next day, not only were dozens of students wearing the discount pink shirts, but hundreds of students showed up wearing their own pink clothes, some head-to-toe.  It was a powerful moment when the bullied student walked into school to see his fellow school mates decked in pink.
Each year since then, anti-bullying day is celebrated with every child wearing a pink shirt.
Here are my 3 displaying their pink shirts....not much of a chore for Lucy funnily enough, who went for the matching trousers too!
