Grievers at Olivia Pratt-Korbel’s burial service sported pink in accolade for the nine-year-old who was shot in her home three weeks prior.

Olivia kicked the bucket after a shooter burst into her Liverpool home and began shooting while at the same time pursuing another man.

Her memorial service started at 11:00 BST at St Margaret Mary’s Congregation in Dovecot.

Individuals going to the help were approached to wear a “sprinkle of pink” in her memory and her mom Cheryl Korbel conveyed a pink teddy to the help.

Students and staff at Olivia’s school committed the day to her and donned pink in her memory, as the structure was improved with hearts and strips.

Rebecca Wilkinson, head educator at St Margaret Mary’s Catholic Junior School said: “The memory of her is particularly alive”.

Nine individuals have so far been captured regarding the 22 August shooting yet no charges have been brought.

Talking before the help, Mrs. Wilkinson said the school had taken its students off plan for a day of reflection for the kids.

“Today is about Olivia,” she said.

“Every one of the 480 of our youngsters will make blossoms, and every single one of those 480 blossoms will be assembled to make a commemoration for Olivia.”

The pink subject is a sign of approval for when Olivia came to school wearing pink nail clean and went through the day with her hands shut to conceal them from the instructors, Mrs. Wilkinson said.

“The youngsters are allowed to talk about Olivia, it isn’t something they are hesitant to discuss,” she said.

The head instructor recently reviewed how the school young lady “would stroll into my room with her companions and her grin would illuminate the spot”.

“The memory of her is a lot alive in the school,” Mrs. Wilkinson added.

The school said its young people are thinking about building a rose nursery and naming a piece of the jungle gym in memory of the nine-year-old.
