Wednesday, September 30th – Orange Shirt Day  –  is a day when we honour the Indigenous children who were sent away to residential schools in Canada and learn more about the history of those schools.  Orange Shirt Day — and every day — is a reminder that every child matters.  By educating people about residential schools, we foster respect and mutual understanding with all Indigenous people and all communities, thus helping us fight racism and bullying.  Everyone is encouraged to wear Orange.
