Bekkestua Primary School raised the pride flag on Friday to mark this year’s celebration. However, the flag was not allowed to hang for long.
– On Tuesday between 6:00 and 7:30 p.m., in the middle of corps training in Kuben, someone cut our flag line in three places, so the rainbow flag fell to the ground, a Facebook post reads on the primary school page.
Boycott hotels: – Never again
The school is now asking for help if anyone saw anything.
– The Norwegian flag is ready to be hoisted to mark the dissolution of the union tomorrow, but now the question is whether we can change the line so quickly, he says further.
– This type of action only shows the importance of our work for inclusion and diversity at Bekkestua Primary School, and we won’t be stopped by someone who can’t stand to see a flag for diversity. The rainbow flag will rise again soon!
Rector Hans Christian Ruud speaks The messenger it’s “very sad”.
– We have a pennant hung all year round, so if the culprits just wanted to do ordinary vandalism, so to speak, they could have done it any other day, says the headmaster and adds:
– I think it was the rainbow flag they were looking for. I don’t think it’s a coincidence. It’s very sad, says Ruud.
Dagbladet corrects: In some places in this case, it was first stated that it happened at Bekkelaget school. The correct one is Bekkestua School.
