Kirkcudbright Primary kids were socks to support Down's Syndrome Scotland

Children from Kirkcudbright Primary School wore lots of socks on Monday to raise money for Down’s Syndrome Scotland.

Pupils wore odd socks, brightly coloured socks and some even wore socks on their clothes or in their hair. Sisters Molly and Ella even made sock animals, including mice, cats and Hedwig the owl and sewed them on to their uniforms.

Around £150 was raised for Down’s Syndrome Scotland.

World Down’s Syndrome day is celebrated on March 21 as the most common form of Down’s Syndrome is Trisomy 21, which is 3 copies of chromosome 21.
