We had six virtual sessions with Chris, spread across two different days. I appreciated that he took on feedback I delivered from the first days sessions and applied this to the latter three sessions. Applying the feedback brought some more structure to the sessions and allowed the students to learn more about Chris and his practice, which showed them why the workshop was relevant and why he was a relevant person to deliver the workshop (as opposed to the same prompts coming from their teachers) [...]

Jonathan was great with the boys. He read to them, explained his writing and illustrating processes and then invited the boys to draw ideas that he could use in his new book. The boys were totally engaged for the session.

I was very impressed with the way Speakers Ink worked so hard to ensure we had Speakers for our Book Week this year. After a last minute cancellation by who we had booked in, Sandie worked very hard to find someone who would do a great job and she chose very well for us. Thanks very much to Sandie and the team.

Sophie was brilliant, informative, tailored to meet what the kids were doing, exploring in class. The writers workshop was also great, kids got a lot out of it and are enthusiastic to write and have their work shared with others. Really enjoyable.

Nick was brilliant! He tailored his presentations to suit the students involved, so each year level got the most out of the presentation they attended. He was engaging, inspiring, funny, informative & personable and the students are still talking about it now, 2 weeks after the event!

Thank you for single-handedly bringing my 10 year old son back to reading.

Kate and Jol were so engaging and tailored their presentations perfectly for our lower and upper primary groups. Our students and staff are still raving about Kate and Jol and I've had many parents tell me their children went home and talked about how amazing it was for days after. Kate and Jol were so friendly and a joy to work with and I would highly recommend them to any school looking for a hilarious and enthusiastic incursion for their students!

Aleesah was engaging, kept the story of her ideas and animals flowing, and inspiring for the students. It was enjoyable to see them singing, dancing and listening carefully to her storytelling. All the teachers had great reviews from each class.

You were such a delight to have. You’re a total pro, and the kids couldn’t stop raving about you.

Pamela's visit was very well received by our girls. The PowerPoint presentations and worksheets she used to accompany her workshops with our year 8 and 10 girls were engaging and useful for the girls when thinking about how to successfully structure a story. I would thoroughly recommend Pamela for an author visit to other schools, particularly all girls' schools as many of her novels deal with females as the main protagonists.

We were delighted to host author and illustrator Katherine Battersby as part of our Book Week celebrations. Katherine delivered engaging and dynamic presentations to students from Prep through to Year 6, bringing her stories to life and captivating every audience. The students were especially drawn to her Cranky Chicken series, laughing along as they explored the quirky characters and storylines. One of the highlights was Katherine’s interactive illustration session, where students shared their [...]
