Wear Pink!

The International Day of Pink           

On April 11 we had the International Day of Pink. We had it because every year on April 11 everybody around the world wears pink to stop bullying. We do this because one day in a school in Nova Scotia in 2007 a student was bullied for wearing a pink shirt so two bystanders saw what was happening so they stopped the bullying. Then after they bought fifty pink shirts and handed them out. All the kids that got a shirt wore the pink shirts on the same day then all the bullying stopped. So now on the day of pink everybody wears something pink. So it could remind others that anybody could be bullied. So today most of our school is wearing pink to represent the International  Day of Pink.
