#wouldntchangeathing - Down-syndrome Awareness

Today we celebrated the 21st World Down Syndrome Day by learning about how people are born with Down Syndrome, the impact it can have on their lives, also how we can help and some famous people. 

We listend and joined in with 50 mothers and their 4 year old children with Down Syndrome lip syncing and performing Makaton to the tune of Christina Perri’s ‘A Thousand Years', which has gone viral around the world in the style of Carpool Karaoke.

Miss Naisbitt taught us how to spell our names using British sign language. We also learnt how to ask what is your name? and to reply with my name is.

Everyone from reception through to Year 6 joined in with signing and asked to learn more! Well done everyone for accepting and understanding that everyone is different, but that we all have a value.
