On Friday the 7th July Evie and Mia Sh in Class 3 invited everyone to dress in bright colours (see Class 1 below) to raise funds to provide resources for people who are living with this condition. A total of £76.50 was raised for Diabetes UK, so a big thank you from Evie and Mia to everyone who donated. The children in Class 3 discussed what we had learnt about diabetes type 1 and ascertained that people who suffer with this have to inject themselves with insulin to keep their blood sugar levels stable, as their pancreas no longer produces insulin naturally. We also learnt that anyone of any age can be diagnosed with diabetes. We wore brightly coloured clothes to show support for the people who live with this illness every day. Here is a photo below of the children in Class 1 proudly wearing their bright coloured clothes.
