Go Blue Day





GO BLUE DAY - HEART CHILDREN


On Friday the 29th May 2009 all the kids at clifton terrace school had a mufti day to support the heard foundation, and there was a gold coin donation and we raised over $100! Well done children they will be very pleased! If you would like to take a look at some facts look below:
Every week 12 babies are born with a heart defect. More than half of these will require surgery. Sadly, some can not be fixed. 70% of all heart surgery involves stopping the child's heart. 1000 children a year are treated for this in Auckland hospital! Childhood heart disease kills more children than all of the other childhood diseases put together. Your donation is going towards support and care of these children. Thank you for your support. There were lots of different sorts of costumes from feathers and scarfs to funny sun glasses and face paint!

Didn't we do well!! Good on you Room 10 for getting behind such a worthwhile cause. I never realised how many children have heart trouble. You tend to think about it being an old persons problem.
