What people are saying
Simon was great . He manipulated his presentations to the age level and composition of the audience and handled both the 130 students presentation and the 50 students equally well. Would definitely get Simon back next year again if he’s available.
Yvonne is a delight to have in a school environment. She is easy to work with and has a vibrant personality. It was Yvonne's second year in a row at our school. This year, we put Yvonne in our art room, where she taught our students Sidney Nolan's painting technique. Yvonne made the students feel like successful painters for their session. All the boys now have a painting to show for their time with Yvonne.
We recently held a Literature & Arts Festival at St. Catherine's Catholic College, The Whitsundays for our Secondary students. All the authors that attended were entertaining, engaging and inspiring. I have had so much positive feedback from students, staff and library colleagues. The students have all been raving about how excellent the festival was, and they were disappointed at the thought of returning to classes for the rest of the week. I have had reluctant readers coming into the library t [...]
The students and teachers were very impressed with Peter and should funds allow, we would like to have him back again next year.
My Kindergarten children love to meet all different people in all different jobs and roles, so they were beyond excited to have a real life author coming to Kindy to share their book. Jess had such a wonderful presence with the group and was so engaging with each and every child. The activities she had planned were perfect for our age group and resulted in a lot of laughter and squeals of fun! The children were so proud to share their work and the illustrations they created, and some have even b [...]
Alison was amazing with the younger students. Her sessions were age appropriate, fun and interactive. She had the students up singing and dancing which they all enjoyed and provided fantastic props including dressing up herself. I would definitely recommend a visit from Alison!
Aleesah was an amazing presenter and very popular across all our year levels, Prep - Year 6.
Lian was very engaging and had a variety of different aspects in her presentation. The students learnt a lot about the process of writing a picture book and particularly enjoyed building a story together.
Tamsin's intervention was of very high quality. She explained very well where her inspiration to write came from. She got the students involved. She answered their questions.
Charlie was so engaging with the students. They had huge smiles on their faces the whole time and thoroughly enjoyed his presentation. He is relatable, entertaining and talented. He can help students bring ideas to life through poetic devices in an amusing and highly engaging session.
Scott was accommodating to our needs with a boys' class who had read one of his books. He inspired them to continue to read and to work on their writing.
