Meet Kelly

Hi, I'm Kelly — teacher and literacy specialist.

Certified Sounds Write Practitioner · WOW Kids

I've spent 16 years teaching across early childhood and primary, the last 7 working with children right through the primary years. I know how children learn to read and write, and I know when they need extra support. That experience led me to further study: I'm a certified Sounds Write Practitioner and in the final year of a Master of Speech Pathology. I started WOW Kids to give Port Macquarie families access to that expertise locally and personally.
