Lámh day 2020

We are a lámh school

Lámh is a manual sign system that supports communication. Lámh is a type of augmentative or alternative communication system (AAC). Lámh signs are based on Irish Sign Language (ISL). Speech is always used with Lámh signs. We began teaching and using Lámh in 2016 and it is a big part of who we are in Greystones CNS. All staff and children learn and use Lámh throughout the day in school and at home.

Using Lámh benefits every child in our school in the following ways:
  • We see as well as hear what is being communicated.
  • Signing naturally encourages people to slow down a little so there is more time to work out the message.
  • If a person’s speech is unclear or limited, the Lámh user may be more easily understood when they use signs. This encourages many to try new words and say more.
  • It encourages eye contact and attention to movement; skills that are important for speech development.​
