World Down Syndrome Day in Tomislav Špoljar School, Varaždin-Croatia








The centre’s students celebrated World Down Syndrome Day with various activities, each class in their own classroom. The OOS students participated in making a frame with multicoloured socks on them. The frame is located in the school atrium so anybody who wishes to take a photo, can do so in “Instagram corner” that was created by school’s social pedagogue.

OOS A 10 students and students of 7.a class held a zoom meeting, while obeying current epidemiological guidelines At the begging of the meeting, they showed each other their multicoloured socks and gave a wave hello with their feet. OOS A 10 students sang a song, and then together they played “We are happy children”*.

6th grade students talked about uniqueness, differences and acceptance.

The students coloured in the multicoloured socks, read a story “My friend’s got Down Syndrome” and made a poster.

In the period between 23rd and 26th of March, students voted on the best pair of multicoloured socks. Everybody who wore two different socks, participated.
