DLD Awareness Day 2023 πŸ’›πŸ’œ

20th Oct 2023
Today P1 marked Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) awareness day.

We read a book, discussed our differences and coloured in some beautiful pictures to mark the occassion. 

This gave our children a chance to think about what makes them special and unique and of how important it is that we accept others.

Our very own Callan helped us make the celebrations even more special! πŸ’›πŸ’œ


Further info:
Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) is a hidden but common disability that affects 1 in 14 people causing difficulties understanding and using language for no known reason. The new terminology of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) was launched in 2017

The 2023 DLDday theme is DLD Around the World, highlighting that DLD occurs in every language.
