#WearPurpleforJIA

National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society

On Tuesday 19th June we will be having a wear purple to school day to raise awareness of juvenile idiopathic arthritis.  The children are invited to wear a purple item of clothing, a hat or hair accessories and will be asked to donate £1 or more if you wish.

One of the children within the Nursery actually has juvenile idiopathic arthritis and although often in a lot of pain is extremely brave coming to school, going to visit their specialist doctor and even staying in hospital.
