On Thursday, September 29 our school is recognizing "Orange Shirt Day" to honour survivors and nonsurvivors of residential schools in Canada. Approximately 150 000 aboriginal and indigenous children were taken from their homes and placed in residential schools, where at least 4 000 of them died. To learn more about "why" we are wearing orange shirts, see the following video:
