Olivia Pratt-Korbel’s headteacher pays tribute to nine-year-old

Nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel will be remembered with a “splash of pink” as her funeral is held. The funeral mass for the schoolgirl, who was shot at her home in Dovecot, Liverpool, will take place at 11am on Thursday at St Margaret Mary’s Church in Knotty Ash. A notice from the family requested all those attending wore a splash of pink. Pupils at St Margaret Mary’s Junior School, next to the church, will also be wearing pink to remember their classmate, headteacher Rebecca Wilkinson said.
