Jeans for Genes Day can be held between Monday 19th September and Sunday 25th September. St Michael’s showed their support on Friday 23rd September.
Jeans for Genes is all about raising money to help some of the most vulnerable children in the UK. Together, we can help to transform the lives of children affected by life altering genetic disorders.
On the 23rd, children were invited to wear an item of denim with their school uniform. This year the theme was, ‘How do you wear yours?’
It was our chance to wear jeans with what we believe works best. It could be our sports team jersey, a classic white tee or a pair of our favourite shoes! We might throw on our best accessory with the denim; a pair of bunny ears, superhero cape, a top hat or crown. Anything goes!
However we chose to wear ours, there were buckets at the school gates collecting donations for the charity. Thank you for encouraging your child to give to support this, we always encourage acts of kindness.
