Background info:
|
A great learning experience to be in 2 different worlds - Hearing and Deaf World.
I am very thankful with my parents who have been so great with me and made sure I fitted in but it can be extremely difficult at times when in groups. Since High School a few of my friends introduced me with 262 and since then have never looked back. |
Deaf Writers acknowledge that we are meeting in the traditional Country of the Kaurna people of the Adelaide Plains and pay respect to Elders' past and present.
We recognise and respect their cultural heritage, beliefs and relationship with the land. We acknowledge that they are of continuing importance to the Kaurna people living today. And we also extend that respect to other Aboriginal Language Groups and other First Nations. |
