Auslan - Beyond Spelling

  • Yackandandah Community Centre 29 High Street Yackandandah, VIC, 3749 Australia (map)

Auslan is Australian Sign Language, the language of the Australian Deaf Community. Auslan is a distinct language, with its own grammar and vocabulary.

Sign languages use manual communication and gestures instead of sound to express the speaker’s thoughts and meaning. This involves a combination of hand shapes, facial expressions and the orientation and movement of hands, arms or body. There is no one universal sign language.

The ‘Beyond Spelling course’ offers the next level of communication, building on your knowledge and confidence that will help you to engage with our non-verbal community members.
