Created by the children, families and staff, this project was used to explore and celebrate their unique Deaf identity. Children added their handprints representing how they communicate and the connections they have formed with each other, their community, culture and history. Vivid colours reflect the vibrancy of Deaf culture as well as their youth club. The birds and lighthouse symbolise the wider local communities they are a part of. Words express what being Deaf and Talking Hands means to them.
