@AustralianStory If children can't hear, they'll struggle to learn. Love to share @SoundScoutsGame jorney with Nicola as we work to identify hearing loss in children at school entry. Using technology to improve lives across Australia.
@QualityLJ@SamHarkus A shocking and very sad story. The lack of awareness about hearing health continues to astound me. Education is desperately needed. Condolences to the family.
@brynhilde_012 It's a challenging field, I have faced this for 10+years with Sound Scouts but we are moving forward! Persevere, the understanding and rewards will come!
There is no doubt from the @SoundScoutsGame data and the many stories educators share with us about children identified with hearing issues that the @healthgovau funding of the Sound Scouts service is one of the most valuable investments they have made in the future of our kids!

@brynhilde_012 You're definitely not alone. Very challenging times and we are all suffering in some way or another. Hopefully you can take some small comfort in knowing you are not alone π
