Pink Shirt Day is an annual event aimed at raising awareness about bullying prevention. Participants wear pink shirts to symbolize their stand against bullying and promote a culture of kindness and acceptance. The event encourages discussions in schools, workplaces, and communities about the impact of bullying, the importance of respecting others, and fostering a safe and inclusive environment for everyone.
GNS will celebrate Pink Shirt Day on Wednesday, February 28, 2024
This year's GNS Pink Shirt design embodies the spirit of unity and inclusivity. It features GNS lettering that is comprised of 801 hearts, representing one heart for every student registered at the school this year. This pattern of hearts symbolizes the collective strength and unity of the student body, emphasizing that every student is an essential part of the whole.
It's anchored by our five core values of truth, courage, caring, individuality, and community.
Shirts are available in adult sizes S-XXXL and youth sizes S-L.
Orders must be placed in advance between Friday January 19 - Monday February 8th
Shirts will be available for pickup on Monday, February 26 at both campuses.
100% of shirt proceeds will go towards funding anti-bullying educational opportunities and learning initiatives for GNS students.
The GNS core values of truth, courage, caring, individuality, and community align closely with Pink Shirt Day's anti-bullying ethos. Truth promotes an open dialogue about bullying, while courage underpins the bravery needed to confront it. Caring reflects empathy towards victims, and individuality celebrates everyone's uniqueness, countering bullying's target on differences. Lastly, community is essential in fostering a united, inclusive environment against bullying. These shared values contribute to creating a respectful and safer society that extends within and beyond our GNS community.
