    • On Wednesday February 28th 2018, Students and staff of Yew Chung International School of Chongqing celebrated International Pink Shirt Day 2018. Pink Shirt Day allows students all over the world to show their support for safe and inclusive schools, and their commitment to end bullying and prejudice. In 2007, two Nova Scotia students decided to take action after witnessing a younger student being bullied for wearing a pink shirt to school. The students bought 50 pink t-shirts and encouraged schoolmates to wear them and send a powerful message of solidarity to the bully. Soon the whole school was pink and the bullies received a clear message – it stops now! For more information on Pink Shirt Day please visit: https://www.pinkshirtday.ca
