Pink Shirt Day

On Friday 17th May Korakonui School will be taking part in Pink Shirt Day, a day to celebrate diversity and promote kindness and inclusion. Classes will be completing a range of activities throughout the day. We are encouraging children to wear pink on this day and to make a gold coin donation. This money goes towards funding resources so that
everyone is educated, equipped and empowered to take on bullying. You can find out more about this day on the 
Pink shirt day website if you wish. There will also be cupcakes for sale at morning break instead of ice blocks, these can also be purchased for a gold coin donation.
