Wear it Purple Day 2026 

This year’s Wear It Purple Day theme is - Colours of Courage

“Courage is not just expressed in big moments, but in everyday choices to live proudly and invite others into understanding, acceptance and celebration.”

Colours of Courage celebrates the many different forms of courage shown by LGBTQIA+SB young people, allies and communities every day.

Courage can look like speaking up, standing out and creating change. It can also take quieter forms of bravery, like living authentically, coming out, asking for support, standing beside someone, or choosing pride and hope in spaces where being yourself does not always feel easy.

Colours of Courage recognises the bravery it takes to push for change in schools, workplaces, communities and institutions where conversations about LGBTQIA+SB lives do not always happen. It celebrates the allies who choose to stand up, speak out and ask what they can do to help create safer, more inclusive spaces.

It also honours the courage of generations of LGBTQIA+SB people who came before us, and the strength of young people today as they continue to build community, connection and visibility.

Frankston High School will be celebrating Wear it Purple Day on Friday 28 August!

CYBER SAFETY PROJECT

Student Sessions and Parent Information Evening

As part of our ongoing commitment to student wellbeing and online safety, we are excited to welcome the Cyber Safety Project to our school in Term 3.

On Wednesday 2 September, Junior School students will participate in engaging and age-appropriate cyber safety presentations delivered by specialist educators. These sessions focus on helping young people develop safe, responsible and positive digital habits, while building their understanding of online safety and digital wellbeing.

We will also be hosting a Parent Information Evening on the same day. This session will provide practical advice and strategies to help families navigate the digital world, including topics such as social media, gaming, screen time, online safety, privacy and supporting positive digital wellbeing at home.

Further details, including session times and registration information, will be shared early next term. In the meantime, parents and carers can learn more about the Cyber Safety Project via Cyber Safety Project.
