Megan came to my school to run workshops during a Book Fair. She spent time with both gifted and talented students and students of mixed ability. She was organised, engaging and respectful during her presentations to students, and had them writing beautiful narratives. Megan was able to adjust her workshop according to the students’ interest and abilities in the class, and quickly gained a positive rapport with students. After the workshop, students reported that Megan was a lot of fun and had [...]

All communications were timely and professional.

Karen was wonderful - generous with her time and full of honest wisdom about writing and the creative life. She gave hope to the emerging creators in our community, encouraging them to continue even when things feel tough.

Joel McKerrow captivated our students the moment he stepped on the stage at our Literary Festival. Joel’s performances were a mesmerising blend of raw emotion, social commentary, and lyrical prowess; creating an unforgettable experience for our students and transcending any pre-conceived ideas of what poetry is all about. He is a true wordsmith and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking to be moved by the magic of spoken word poetry.

I was inspired so much when you came in and how you turned family history into an absolutely amazing book! I really hope that one day I can do the same

Phil was great, I would book him again and recommend him to other schools.

The students and teachers really enjoyed Michael Salmon's visit and have done some wonderful follow-up work since.

Jacqueline Harvey visited our school (Claremont College) to give up us an inspiring talk about her most humorous memories and to introduce us to her latest book series Kensy and Max. We really enjoyed listening to her talk and are so excited to get our hands on a Kensy and Max book. Jacqueline is also the author of the books Alice Miranda and Clementine Rose. We hope she comes to our school again soon.

Our student's at St Joseph's have been reading Corinne's books in for many years and were so excited for her visit. She did not disappoint, and I would highly recommend her to other organisations. She engaged the students by speaking about her writing and was open to questions from our students. Thank you so much Corinne, we cannot wait for you to visit again.
