Our Bespoke Learn-To-Read Program
Cracking the Code Together
Hi, we are the Illawarra based, local educator duo and reading fanatics behind Reading Warriors.
Our key focus is on the foundational knowledge and skills necessary for our littlest loves to develop an essential and lifelong skill (and love) of reading – this includes Phonemic Awareness, Phonics and Fluency.
We understand that a child struggling to read can be a worrying and stressful time for both the child and their family.
Phonemic Awareness
Designed to build strong foundational literacy skills through phonemic awareness – the ability to hear, identify & manipulate sound into spoken words.
Phonics
By teaching children how letters & sounds work together to form words. By learning to decode words through sound-letter patterns, children gain the tools to read, spell & write with greater ease and confidence.
Fluency
By following these steps and progressing through our program, children develop the ability to read with speed, accuracy and expression. Fluency bridges the gap between decoding words and understanding them, focused on meaning.
Supporting Illawarra children for a brighter future

Our Founders
Celia
Founder & Local Educator
“Reading is more than just a skill, it’s the thread that weaves together learning, identity and a lifetime of opportunities. It’s a gateway to understanding the world, connecting with others, and unlocking confidence and curiosity. By nurturing these cognitive abilities early, you help create learners who don’t just “read to pass,” but read to grow.”
Judy
Founder & Local Educator
“Teaching a child to read opens the door to infinite worlds—empowering them to wonder, grow, and explore with confidence, to stumble bravely, and to rise knowing that every mistake is the beginning of new understanding and the path to lifelong learning.”
