NZ Sign Language Course in Whangarei

Penny from Kensington

Big ups to Eddie and co for arranging the sign language courses in Whangarei. I have only been to one lesson so far but Eddie is patient, has a great SOH and is really keen to have other people learn his language (the third official NZ language) and I can see it is going to be a fun-filled 10 weeks where we are going to learn the basics at the very least. Thanks have to go out to the team who helped make it so affordable as they are keen for the comminuty to be able to talk to them and to the council for a bit of funding too.
The only thing is, to those doing the course, we might need to organise times to meet up and Practice! Practice! Practice! :-)
