July 1961 - The Kids learn to live - It's a great moment

July 1961 - The Kids learn to live - It's a great moment - a deaf boy realizes what speech means. As he puts his hands to teacher Mrs Mokhudi's throat he feels the vibrations that cause her to speak. Solemnly, he learns the first step in breaking his silence. Soon he too may be able to make sounds by following the pattern of those muscle contractions. Soon, too he will find a new way of life. This is the story of courage. (Photograph by Ian Berry @ BAHA)
