What a hidden gem Julie is! I was blown away by her outstanding presentation, as was the audience. Inspiring, honest, thoughtful. Really first class.

Deb was a very engaging speaker and performer. The children really enjoyed the visit and have been madly borrowing her books. Deb pitched her talk to each year level and managed to have everyone laughing and learning at their level - including the teachers.

All communications with Speakers Ink Agency were effective and prompt. Staff were very pleasant to deal with.

Carla was the guest author at our annual Read With Your Dad event. This involves students and their Dads all reading the same book then attending an author evening. Feedback from all was that they really enjoyed Carla's book, We Saw What You Started and found the action, characters and setting all drew them in. From my perspective as a teacher librarian, I loved that I could easily recommend this book as both suitable and enjoyable to our readers aged 12 - 15. On the evening of the event, we cou [...]

I thought Andy was great! He engaged the students and they really related to what he was saying. I've set a homework task this week for the students to create a picture using dot art or hatching etc which was inspired by his talk. Grades 5-6 He was fantastic! The students were very engaged and really enjoyed his presentation. He worked very well with them and the illustrating activities being the focus was so much fun. I had my class come back and wanted to draw for the rest of the day!' Grade [...]

Matt did a great job stimulating the boys’ interest in an alternative look at Brisbane’s past.

The students and staff of Pacific Pines SHS enjoyed every minute of the engaging, informative and highly entertaining performance that explored the central themes of Shakespeare’s most famous and memorable works. With his catchy hip hop beats, raps about the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet and the exploration of Macbeth – affectionately referred to during [...]

It was so great to have Darren come to visit our classes…Darren was engaging, inspiring and certainly knowledgeable about his craft. He read from his book, talked about the characters he created and shared bits from his personal life too. Darren was comedic, which always captivates kids, and summarized his presentation through a game. They loved it. We’d love to have him back.

Kids have been telling me all about the performance and the story. They loved the puppets, the sound effects and enjoyed seeing it projected on the screen so they could watch along.

We have finished our Step into Stories program and it was a great success. I have heard nothing but wonderful comments and praise about Trevor Fourmile.

I just wanted to let you know how impressed we were with your presentation. Both the boys and classroom teachers took away some great ideas. Would have loved to have you longer because you were inspiring.

Prue Mason did a great writing workshop with the 4-7s using hats. The kids were busy the whole time and she left the worksheets for the teachers to continue using in the class.
