Do It For Dolly Day

12.05.21

At the beginning of 2018, the country was stunned by the death of 14-year-old Dolly Everett, a victim of relentless bullying including cyber-bullying.

Dolly left behind her parents Kate and Tick Everett, and sister Meg, who established Dolly’s Dream to act as a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves, create a kinder world and work to prevent other precious lives being lost to bullying.

Do It For Dolly Day is about bringing the community together, spreading kindness and uniting in taking a stand against bullying.

Do It For Dolly Day is held on Friday 14 May 2021 and we are asking Middle and Senior Students to show support of the day by wearing a light blue ribbon and being kind (every day!).

Student Leaders will hand out ribbons on Friday morning.

This year, Do It For Dolly and help create a safe and kinder world for Australia's kids and communities. #DoItForDollyDay #bekind

This awareness campaign was prompted from a 9SHINE class activity.
