ORANGE SHIRT DAY at Gledhill is this Tuesday, September 30th
It is a day to learn, commemorate and celebrate Indigenous culture and history
Staff and students are encouraged to wear an orange shirt to school on Tuesday, September 30th to commemorate the day. Any orange shirt will do!
Why Orange Shirts?
Orange Shirt Day grew out of Phyllis Webstad’s story of having her shiny new orange shirt taken away on her first day of school at the St. Joseph Mission residential school, and it has become an opportunity to keep the discussion on all aspects of residential schools happening annually.
