LOOK WHAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING IN AUSLAN AT MPHPS

Hello everyone,

We had another great fortnight in the Auslan classroom. It’s so good to see students practising the signs they have learnt and being enthusiastic about their learning.

SIGNS OF THE WEEK

Don’t forget to ask your child to show you some of the AUSLAN signs they have been learning. In the last fortnight we have been revising many signs that we learnt last year. The signs of the week are: ‘sport', ‘basketball’ & ‘soccer.’
