Connection Fosters Language & Speech Development!

Language is vital for building connections and facilitating meaningful interactions. Through language, individuals can engage in conversations, tell stories, share humour, make requests, negotiate, debate, and persuade. It serves as the foundation for our ability to connect with others and express our intentions clearly.

We encourage the multifaceted functions of language and connection and its vital role in social and emotional development. Our approach includes strategies of connection so that every child can communicate and navigate the world around them.
