This week is NZ Sign Language Week. We started the week in our school assembly with all our students learning a song using Sign Language and singing the National Anthem.

This is an opportunity for our students to learn about how we respect each other differences and demonstrate our Learning Quality of Empathy.  Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has released a video encouraging Kiwi business leaders and the hearing majority to support deaf people this New Zealand Sign Language (NZSL) Week, and business leaders are following suit.  If you’re interested in a free 45min taster course, jump online to register at nzslweek.org.nz #nzslweek2018   If you would like more information please go to the following site.  http://deaf.org.nz/nzslw
