Thank you to everyone who has come into school today wearing odd socks or wacky tights.
Each year on the 21st of March we celebrate World Down Syndrome Day. People with Down syndrome have an extra chromosome (they have 3 copies of chromosome 21 - hence 21/3, 21st March!) and to raise awareness we ask our pupils and staff to wear odd socks as chromosomes look a lot like socks!
All the money raised today will be donated to Ups and Downs Southwest who have supported April in Oak class and her family.
