kindness is contagious - we made a video



In Canada, February 27 is Anti-Bullying Day.

Or pink shirt day.

Six years ago, a male grade 9 student in Nova Scotia was bullied for wearing a pink shirt to school.  A couple of boys chose to stand up for this young man, and bought and handed out 50 pink shirts for students to wear the next day.  

Now, many schools are a sea of pink on February 27. 

We all wear our pink t-shirts.  (One little guy in my class even spray dyed his hair pink!)


I figure that kindness is contagious, and is good bullying prevention.  So, we like to promote kindness.  Read about our video project here.

This week was our premiere.  Kindness is contagious.  


Check it out.
The song is Noah and the Whale's Give a Little Love.
I think you'll like it.
