Awesome!

Thanks heaps for your recommendation Helen. Simon was extremely popular with everyone. Hopefully we can have Simon back to do some workshops with the seniors.

Andy had a well organised, engaging and interactive presentation. He shared some of his published books, talking about the process of getting a book to a published state. Andy also brought in his version of a 'writer's notebook', which tied in very well with our students' own launch of personal writer's notebooks. Andy was engaging and entertaining for our yr 3-6 students, with his sketching and involving them in doing their own 'two animal' sketch.

Anisa was a hit with students and staff. Her fun informal style was engaging and it was great to see our students participating in word games. A number of my budding writers followed her to her car seeking advice. One of my more reticent young lady’s was particularly keen to seek her counsel. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to friends and colleagues.

Having Kim come to our centre for her art workshops has been an amazing experience. Even children who usually have no interest in art or being inside found a lot of excitement and passion as Kim arrived each day. Her expertise really shines through as she explains often complex art concepts in a way our 4 and 5-year-olds understood. Each lesson builds on from the previous one, helping children not only understand art a little better but also shapes, colours, and other academic aspects. We foun [...]

Lisa and Tracey exceeded our expectations!!! From our Prep class to our Year 8 class they were engaging, humorous, informative and warm. All classes were highly engaged and all of our teachers said that they were the best speakers we have ever had at our school! They were brilliant. We would definitely book Tracey and Lisa again and highly recommend them to any other school.

Kerry was a great speaker and more than met our expectations. Would definitely recommend her to others.

Dee read from her book 'Beyond Belief' and shared the incredible story behind its creation. The students were captivated as she spoke about her writing process and the real-life events that inspired the book. After the reading, Dee conducted a fantastic writing workshop with our students, sparking creativity and helping them develop their own storytelling skills. We are so grateful for the opportunity to learn from such a talented and passionate author!

I think Kat Apel may be our Book Week treasure. The boys love you! Teachers, students and parents have loved hearing you talk about your books and your family, and all the teachers have been impressed with your style and your activities.

I can always rely on Speakers Ink to do all the behind the scenes organisation in terms of securing a speaker.

The sessions both with the students and with the teachers were fantastic. It made all the teachers talk about what and how we are teaching as well as ignited a passion in the teachers to implement changes to their practices.

Absolutely great entertainment, a good laugh with thoughtful reflection. Our young and older crowd really enjoyed the evening

Karen’s motivating, inclusive style and high-yield activities really had the students at all abilities working hard, creating stories and experimenting with their imagination.

Our expectations were met and exceeded. Everything ran smoothly and Donna was very flexible about fitting into our program. I would book Donna Dyson again and I would also recommend her to other schools / organisations.
