Orange Shirt Day tomorrow

If you have an orange shirt, please wear it tomorrow. We will be discussing in class the importance of why we wear orange tomorrow. Orange Shirt Day is a day to recognize the Every Child Matters. The story behind Orange Shirt Day involves a First Nations girl who wore a new orange shirt on her first  day of residential school. Her orange shirt was taken away and she was not allowed to speak her language or wear what she wanted. You can also wear your blue Bridlewood shirt or a color close to orange such as red or yellow.
