Challenge Description:
Have you ever watched a news press conference and wondered what the person next to the speaker is doing? Well, that is sign language and if they are in Australia, they are signing in Auslan, the sign language of the Australian Deaf community. It’s very important everyone can understand what the person is saying and what impact it has on individuals. It could be an important message about fire, flood, a new program the Government is introducing or more recently, the COVID daily updates.
The challenge today is to decipher this message and then to send us a message back.
