‘Hello’
Hello, the 2011 national year of communication, is a campaign to increase understanding of how important it is for children and young people to develop good communication skills.
In our local area Twerton Infant School and First Steps Nursery are working together to support the campaign.
In the 21st century, the ability to communicate - to say what you want to say and to understand what other people are saying - is fundamental.
Speech, language and communication underpins everything we do in life. Babbling babies do not become talkative toddlers by chance. Communication is a skill that we learn and develop and is something we can all improve.
But did you know that in the UK today over 1 million children and young people have some form of speech, language and communication need? This is at least 2 or 3 children in every classroom – and that’s the children we know about.
