Orange Shirt Day

By Orange Shirt Society and Phyllis Webstad

Orange Shirt Day: September 30th aims to create champions who will walk a path of reconciliation through promoting the message that 'Every Child Matters'. Orange Shirt Day, observed annually on September 30th, is a day to honour Residential School Survivors and their families, and to remember those who did not come home.

This book explores a number of topics including the historical impacts of Residential Schools on Indigenous Peoples, the history of the Orange Shirt Day movement, and how you can effectively participate in Orange Shirt Day. With end of chapter reflection questions and a series of student art submissions, readers are guided to learn more about how they and others view and participate in Residential School reconciliation.
