"As a society, we know a lot about how to best support students to become readers and writers, and how these skills act as a protective factor across the lifespan. It’s vital that our systems work together to ensure we are opening those doors for all children. Working within the SOLAR Lab is a unique opportunity to
contribute to this goal." ~ Eamon Charles - Speech Pathologist & Academic Intern in the SOLAR Lab at La Trobe University, Australia.

Pamela Snow, Tanya Serry, Nathaniel Swain, Think Forward Educators Tessa Weadman The Little Bookworm Speech Pathology for Children, and Eamon Charles, academic staff at the La Trobe University's Science of Language and Reading (SOLAR) Lab explore some key terminology in education in their article, "Terminology in the Education Landscape: Some Key Terms Explained" published in the January 2024 issue of the Dystinct Magazine.

The Little Bookworm has a new Mum/Owner/Director!

Dr. Tessa Weadman is the new owner of The Little Bookworm. She is a Speech Pathologist with many years of experience in a wide range of areas. She has a particular interest in literacy development and intervention in children in their early years of schooling.

The Little Bookworm team will be the same. I (Michelle O’Brien) will continue to work with Tessa 4 days/week. We also have Laura Elder, and Cassie Karanicolos, who are both full time, and Mel Anthonisz who also works 4 days/week. Of course our gorgeous therapy dogs, Audrey and Henry will also be staying.

We are very excited by this change. We wish Tessa all the very best and will all continue to work together to provide you and your child/ren the very best therapy, support and care that you have come to expect at The Little Bookworm!!

Happy New Year!!!
