To the Old Orchard Primary School community,

 

To celebrate World Down Syndrome Day (March 21st), my family and I are taking part in the ‘Rock Your Socks’ campaign!

 

My younger sister, Sophie, lives with Down Syndrome. Over the years, we have been lucky enough to be supported by wonderful organisations such as T21, who provide essential support, advocacy and opportunities to people with Down Syndrome and their families.

 

In the office, there is a box of bright, super fun socks with lots of different designs! They are $10 each and all funds go to supporting T21. If you would like to buy a pair, you can pay cash at the office, otherwise there are bank details provided on the attached flyer, too (FYI this is NOT the school account).

 

Thanks so much for your support!
