On 14 March 2026, KDSF-JB celebrated World Down Syndrome Day with the theme “Together Against Loneliness,” promoting friendship, inclusion, and a sense of belonging. A highlight of the event was the Buddy System, where each child was paired with a volunteer or parent to encourage meaningful interaction throughout the programme.
The celebration brought together 41 children, including students from the Infant and Transition Programmes, regular classes, and alumni, supported by 30 volunteers from Newcastle University Medicine Malaysia (NUMed), AME REIT, and the community.
Participants enjoyed a range of activities, including a warm-up session, the “Rock Your Socks and Style” fashion showcase, games, performances, and a cake-cutting ceremony.
KDSF-JB extends its sincere appreciation to McDonald’s Nong Chik, SDS Bakery & Café Kempas, PANTECH Corporation Sdn Bhd, NUMed, all volunteers, parents, and supporters for their generous contributions in making the celebration a meaningful and memorable success.
