Vista Hills, along with all schools in the WRDSB, will be highlighting and emphasizing Anti-Bullying Awareness by “wearing pink” for the day.
Pink Shirt Day dates back to 2007, when two high school students from Nova Scotia witnessed a younger student being bullied and threatened for wearing pink. The next day hundreds of students showed up wearing pink clothes to take a stand against the bullies. It was this act of support from the peers, classmates, and fellow citizens that provided the inspiration for this annual event in schools across Canada.
Thanks for your support of this great initiative!
