Pink Shirt Day

Pink Shirt Day (22nd of May 2015)  

                

Today is Pink Shirt day and everyone is dressing up in pink. We are dressing up in pink because it is about  stopping bullying.

Why Pink?

We wear pink because a long time ago there was a boy who wore a pink shirt and he got bullied, so we wear pink because that is a saying of anyone can wear pink, pink is not just for girls it is for anyone it is just a color. Pink shirt day is about working together to stop or prevent bullying. So wearing pink is cool.    

HELP US SUPPORT PINK SHIRT DAY DON'T BE A BULLY!

Mothers Day is on Sunday so today we made cards for our mums' with a cinquain poem we had written inside them. We also wrote short descriptions of our mothers' and used a website that created a heart out of our words. We then inserted the heart writing into our own blogs.

Happy Mothers Day to all the Room 12 mums.
