What is Down syndrome for kids?

For kids, Down syndrome means they may learn and develop more slowly than their peers, but they can thrive with the right supports. Children with Down syndrome may have challenges in speech, motor skills, and learning, but they often show strong social skills, creativity, and resilience.

Families can access therapies such as speech, occupational, and behaviour support to help children reach their full potential. Schools in Australia also provide inclusive education pathways.
