British Sign Language Week
We have celebrate British sign language (BSL) week across the school. A teacher of the Deaf from South Wales (@Hands2Hear on Instagram) taught us the signs for our school REACH values. We have also taken part in virtual sign language classes provided by 'Signature' where we learnt the signs for the letters of the alphabet, family members and greetings such as good morning. Can you sign our REACH values? Have a look at this video where our children can show you the signs.
