Room 7 celebrated Downs Syndrome awareness day today with a special morning tea. It is held on the 21st March (21.03) each year for a special reason - who can remember why?

Wow! That was cool! Well done, everyone! This is the first year that the whole world celebrated people with Down syndrome and from now on the United Nations have decided that 21/3 will be Down Syndrome Day! Go Katie!
we celebrate world down syndrome day on the 21st of march ( 3rd month) every year because people with down syndrome have an extra chromosome. making three 21st chromosomes. hence the 21st of the third month. Thank you room 7 for making such a lovely video. this always cheers the heart of a mum with a child with down syndrome to see that they are so welcome - ALWAYS

Hi Room 7,
ReplyDeleteWhy is Downs Syndrome Awareness Day on 21/03? I'd be interested to know. (I had a quick look on the website and couldn't find the answer.)
Miss Dick
Thanks Room 7. I should have listened to your video better!!
ReplyDeleteChromosomal condition caused by the presence of all or part of an extra 21st chromosome? Is that right?
