USC staff get 'loud' for deaf children
Some normally quiet achievers at the University of the Sunshine Coast decided to get “loud” recently in order to help deaf children and their families.
The hard-working staff of USC’s Student Administration and Student Services took part in national Loud Shirt Day in support of the Hear and Say Centre on Friday 14 September.
The aim of the day was to raise funds for the purchase of listening devices that will help deaf children acquire speech and language skills.
USC Disability Services Officer Bronwyn Crowther said University staff enjoyed dressing up for the day and raised $110.
“It was a wonderful opportunity to get everyone together to have some fun, lots of laughs, and to wear some really way-out shirts,” she said.
