Oscar, Xavier and Zoeya are looking forward to Red Nose Day.
Last week, they joined in a fundraising disco for the Red Nose organisation, along with other youngsters from the Goodstart Early Learning Centre in Hoppers Crossing.
More than 50,000 preschoolers across Australia have participated in fundraising discos in the lead-up to Red Nose Day on Friday, June 30.
Red Nose partnered with the Australian Radio Network, iHeartradio and Little Rockers Radio for the disco initiative.
Red Nose, formerly known as SIDS and Kids, aims to create a future in which no child dies suddenly and unexpectedly during pregnancy, infancy or in childhood.
Red Nose Day is the not-for-profit organisation’s biggest annual fundraising campaign.
Money collected will be used to provide families with safe-sleeping education for infants and children, in addition to funding research into SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) and other causes of sudden and unexpected deaths in unborn babies and young children.
In Australia in 2015, there were 113 deaths categorised as sudden unexpected death in infancy (SUDI), including SIDS.
