5. What is Natural Day?  Natural day is a day dedicated to loving who you are, as you are.  A day dedicated to embracing your natural beauty, by going “all natural,” meaning doing nothing to change your natural physical appearance.

6. Why is Natural Day important?  Natural Day is important because today in our world there’s so much emphasis put on physical appearance, that for one day we want to put it all aside.  It’s a day to come together and love one another for who we are.

7. How does Natural Day impact our school?  Although it appears to seem that it doesn’t make a difference; we’ve gotten personal feedback from students from our school. Lives have been affected positively from this day; and to us, one person makes this whole project worth it.

11. Not only does Natural Day affect our school; but it’s slowly impacting the world. CCountries now participating in Natural day: The United States, The UK, Netherlands, Brazil, France, Mexico, Sweden, Portugal, Canada, Germany, Mauritius, Peru, Argentina, Columbia, Cyprus, Finland, Bosnia, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Algeria, Norway, Spain, Belgium.
