Staff at St. Paul Elementary School sent us this photo showing local recognition today of World Autism Awareness Day.

Blue is widely used to mark the occasion.

Autism Canada says autism spectrum disorder affects normal brain development.

Those with autism commonly experience communication problems and struggle with social interactions.

Repeated behaviour patterns are also often found.

World Autism Awareness Day seeks to increase awareness about people, and especially children, with autism.
