Before becoming a central Principal, at my last school, we transformed this day into a sea of pink as we celebrated International Day of Pink. It was a day filled with music, dance, and powerful words, united in the message of love, acceptance, and courage against hate and bullying. We were honoured to have many inspiring speakers and performers during our special Think Pink assembly. From the moving ASL choir rendition of "True Colours" to the energetic beats of the Steel Pan, every moment reminded us of the strength found in diversity and the importance of supporting each other. Special guests, including Olympian Mark Tewksbury, the Mayor and Director, joined us, sharing poignant messages resonating with all. "When you see it when you hear it… Don't let it go," the Director emphasized, highlighting the power of taking a stand. Our school was also proud to host a mini popup preview of Canada's first 2SLGBTQI+ Museum, an initiative that speaks volumes about our commitment to celebrating and protecting diversity. From the indigenous song opening by Aqua Niibi, student spoken word brilliance supported by Mahlikah Awe:ri, the vibrant Metis fiddle by Alyssa Delbaere-Sawchuk, and dance supported by Janice Pomer, every act was a testament to our collective spirit and the beauty of our differences. Let's carry the message of International Day of Pink beyond today - standing up, speaking out, and supporting one another in the fight against bigotry and bullying. Together, we're not alone. Together, we can make a difference. Here is a clip: toronto.citynews.ca/video/2019/04/… #InternationalDayOfPink #StandUpSpeakOut #DiversityAndInclusion #ThinkPink #UnityInDiversity
