Join the pink shirt day movement on Friday 17th May 2019!
Pink Shirt day is led by the Mental Health Foundation. Stand with other New Zealanders to end bullying and spread kindness on the day and all year long.
Bullying is an important issue in New Zealand. Our schools have the second highest rate of bullying out of 51 countries and 1 in 5 workers are affected by bullying. Studies show people who are bullied are more than likely to have mental health issues in the future.
So let’s stand together and say “NO!” to bullying by wearing pink on Friday 17th May.
