Earlsdon Primary School

World Down Syndrome Day

Sunday 21st March is World Down Syndrome day. We would like to support this day and celebrate diversity by asking
the children to wear a pair of colourful, bright and unique socks to school-as 21st March is a Sunday we will be moving this to Friday 26th March this year! Wearing colourful socks helps us to appreciate that people with Down Syndrome have an extra
chromosome (21st chromosome). In school we will be celebrating diversity throughout the week and learning that chromosomes make each person unique. We hope
that all of the children will support this event– we are looking forward to seeing their colourful and unique socks next Friday. Thank you for your support

Respect

A culture is strong when people work with each other, not for themselves. Simon Sinek

Challenge

Come to the edge. We might fall. Come to the edge. It's too high! Come to the edge. And they came, and he pushed, and they flew. Christopher Iogne

Resilience

Resilience comes from the Latin word 'resalire', which means springing back.

Responsibility

You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make. Jane Goodall
