Nursery - World Down Syndrome Day

20th Mar 2026

World Down Syndrome Day was created to celebrate the lives of people with Down syndrome and to make sure they have the same freedoms and opportunities as everybody else. 

21st March (21/3) matches the 3 copies of chromosome 21. This is unique to people with Down syndrome. 

We were so glad to celebrate this special day by wearing bright coloured socks and talking about how we are all special.
