Orange Shirt Day – Sept 30 2022

September 30 – Orange Shirt Day/National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

On September 30, we recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, honouring the survivors, victims and lasting effects of Canada’s Residential Schools. The federal statutory holiday was first known as Orange Shirt Day and many of us will continue to wear orange in solidarity.

Don’t have an Orange Shirt? – we will have stickers for students to wear.
