NZSL Week May 6th to 12th 2019

Jean from Tauwhare

Did you our second official language except for English in NZ?
The first language is Māori
The second language is NZSL (New Zealand Sign Language)
Lastly language in some area in the Government is English.
This is correct as a deaf linguist.

Did you notice anything different on social media lately through the breaking news, in the Parliament Debate etc in New Zealand?
An NZSL interpreter signing for the Deaf, deaf and Hard of Hearing people and children around NZ. Note we don't use the word 'hearing impaired' anymore through medical, GP, even to label people/children and elderly people who have hearing loss.

Do you want to learn to do sign language for fun, to communicate with your family member, friends even your neighbour like me living in Eureka?

May 6th to 12th 2019.

Poll: Do you use the district nursing service?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The health system has been accused of breaking the law amid sky-rocketing demand for community-based nurses in Waikato.

This comes as the supply of district nurses lags behind referral increases of more than 100%, leading to staff burn out and an “unprecedented” service failure.

Do you use the district nursing service? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
