據《澳大利亞人報》報導，在宣布以「多元」的名義取消計劃後，一所學校恢復了母親節攤位。

墨爾本的 Moonee Ponds West Primary School 發出了一份時事通訊，宣布一個讓孩子們在母親節用零用錢購買小禮物的攤位將不會繼續運營，這讓家長們感到沮喪。

校長傑夫里昂解釋說，學校將改為慶祝聯合國國際家庭日。在發給學生家庭的一份通訊中，他寫道：“我相信慶祝國際家庭日是一種更具包容性的方式來慶祝現代世界家庭生活和愛的豐富性、多樣性和復雜性。

A school has reinstated its Mother’s Day stall after plans to cancel in the name of “diversity” were announced, The Australian reports.

Melbourne’s Moonee Ponds West Primary School sent out a newsletter announcing that a stall made for children to spend pocket money on small gifts for Mother’s Day would not be going ahead, to the dismay of parents.

Principal Jeff Lyon explained that the school would instead be celebrating UN International Day of Families. In a newsletter sent to families of pupils, he wrote: “I believe celebrating International Day of Families is a more inclusive way of celebrating the richness, diversity and complexity of living and loving as a family in the modern world.
