Hurstville Speechie Library Talk: Early Literacy & Language Development

Speech Pathology Australia’s Speechie Library Talks connect local library communities with their local speech pathologist (speechie). Speech pathologists work with children and families to help to build the foundations on which literacy skills develop and help support a healthy transition into literacy.

Speechie Library Talks are free presentations focused on helping parents and carers to develop language and literacy for children aged 0-5 years at home.

Come join us for tips and a demonstrated book reading of one of the winning books from 2025 Speech Pathology Australia Book of the Year. Register today to attend at your closest Georges River Libraries branch!

Friday 21 November: Hurstville Library, 10am-11am
