The International Day of Sign Languages was observed on 23 September 2026 in the General Classroom, under the leadership of the Social Science Option students. The programme was organized to create awareness about the importance of sign language and to highlight its role in promoting effective communication and inclusion in the educational environment.
The programme began with an introduction and welcome by Ms.Aishwarya, who also served as the anchor. She briefly explained the significance of sign language and its relevance for teachers in communicating with students who have hearing or speech difficulties.
As part of the programme, the students presented ten useful sign language gestures that can be helpful for teachers in classroom situations. The signs were demonstrated by Ms.Aishwarya, Ms.Kshema, Ms.Diya, Mr.Swabeeh, and Mr.Jasir. Each sign was demonstrated clearly so that the participants could understand and learn its practical use.
The activity was informative and interactive. It helped the students understand that learning basic sign language can contribute to a more inclusive, supportive, and accessible classroom environment. The programme also encouraged future teachers to develop sensitivity towards students with different communication needs.
The observance concluded successfully with active participation from the Social Science Option students. Overall, the programme was a meaningful learning experience that emphasized the importance of communication, inclusion, and respect for diversity in education.
