Play isn’t just fun, it’s how children learn, practice, and grow.

Speech Pathology Week is being recognised across the country, with this year’s theme highlighting the difference speech pathologists make in the lives of those they support.

Over 1.2 million Australians live with communication needs, and rely on the support provided by teams of professionals, including speech pathologists, for assistance at every stage of their lives. From young children to older Australians, speech pathologists are there, supporting wellbeing, confidence, connection, independence, inclusion, empowerment and opportunity.

In our clinic we have an incredible team of SP's supporting clients and their families, working together on a range of communication, language, literacy and speech sound development goals all the time. Their work is so important, and can be life changing.
