Manawatu Deaf Society 60th Anniversary
60th Anniversary, Christmas for children and adults’ parties, Picnic BBQ, St Patrick Day prizes, AGM catering, NZSL Kahoot pizzas/prizes, Fish & Chips Night, Life membership badges, Theme nights
Bringing everyone together young and old to share their experiences. Making the most of the time together and creating memories that will lives on. Learning from each other’s is beneficial for everyone. The young learn from their elders and the elders guide the young. The events bring them together and to engage using NZSL to communicate with each other’s. The young gained knowledge and skills and the elders gain patience and share their history with them. We would like to keep the clubroom going as long as we can and to see MDS thriving with the support from NZSL Board.
We have had four young Deaf becoming members since we have been doing those theme nights and games night and making them a part of our club. We would like to continue in supporting MDS with those theme nights as they bring the community together so having the funds allowed us to continue in doing that.
