Bright Spots is extended!
We've had such an amazing response to Bright Spots that we've decided to extend it for another week!
Now that it's the school holidays, why not get the kids or grandkids involved!
Celebrate the most colourful, quirky and joyful places in your community by snapping a photo or two of a Bright Spot and sharing it here. There are 10 prizes of $250 Resene ColorShop vouchers and $250 Prezzy® cards up for grabs so you can create your own Bright Spot!
Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
