Orange Shirt Day- September 30th

Posted September 23, 2020

Every Child Matters – Orange Shirt Day is Sept. 30 Orange Shirt Day is an annual event, held every year on Sept. 30, meant to educate and raise awareness about the residential school system and the impact it had on Indigenous communities for more than a century—an impact that continues today. We encourage staff and students to discuss the importance of reconciliation year round, and as part of these ongoing discussions, to participate in Orange Shirt Day on Sept. 30. Whether in a school or board site, wear an orange shirt on Sept. 30 and take some time to learn about the residential school system.
