Welcome to the Spina Bifida Awareness Month website!

Spina Bifida Awareness Month is celebrated during September each year.

The aim of Awareness Month is community education about spina bifida, the second most common physical disability in Australia.

This website provides a lot of information about spina bifida for primary and secondary schools.

For teachers - ideas, resources, and suggestions for the classroom.

For students - ideas, information, projects for your learning.

For a school fund raiser ideas to help run an Awareness Month fund raising activity at your school.

Last year many schools used this ready made kit to run gold coin free dress days, and other fund raising activities. Everybody benefited: Improved awareness of spina bifida in the school; money raised for the SB Association to fund its on-going community education work.
