Our Story

Locally Grown

SpellRead was developed in Prince Edward Island by Dr. Kay MacPhee. The program was brought to Halifax in the late 1990s by Sarah Arnold with support from Dr. Wayne MacDonald, the Chief of Psychology at the lWK Children’s Hospital. Today, the program is widely accepted and referred to by psychologists, speech therapists and educators alike.
