This is a fantastic opportunity to raise deaf awareness and promote hearing health at your child’s school. Organising a simple event where participants donate a gold coin can make a big difference. You could tie it to key dates in the Deaf and hearing awareness calendar (see below) or any other occasion.
Ideas include:
- Mufti Day (wearing plain clothes)
- Odd sock day
- Wear your favourite sports team’s jersey or colours
Important dates to consider:
Mar 3rd – World Hearing Day
Mar 1st – 7th – Hearing Awareness Week
Apr 13th – Auslan Day
Sep 23rd – 29th – National Week of Deaf People
Sep 23rd – International Day of Sign Languages
