is here!
As well as being our 85th Anniversary, this year also marks a significant milestone for NZSL: 20 years since NZSL was recognised as an official language of Aotearoa New Zealand!
New Zealand Sign Language Week is not just a celebration; it’s a moment for the Deaf community to stand tall, embracing their identity and heritage. It’s a time to showcase the richness of NZSL and the diverse culture it represents.
There are heaps of online resources to learn from, including the Let's Talk booklets where you and your whānau can learn basic signs for everyday sitations: https://nzsignlanguage.nz/resources/lets-talk-booklets/
Every sign counts!
