The Launch to School program, being introduced by the South Sydney Local Health District, will assist children with speech impairments as they enter primary school.

 

300 children have taken part in the program over the past two years, with a hope to expand and help overcome a hurdle faced by two hundred and 20,000 four year olds alone.

 

The unique combination of speech pathology and occupational therapy is helping children avoid social issues as they enter school and begin their learning.
