Benjamin Gilmour is a very engaging speaker with a wealth of personal experience and wonderful anecdotes. Given the breadth of his creativity in writing as well as film, no student leaves his talks without being touched in some way.

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.

So thrilled that you were involved in this year’s festival. Such a big hit with the students; they are really inspired. Thank you so much; we really enjoyed having you at the school.
Yvonne was an energetic and vibrant presenter. She created an open and positive atmosphere with our primary school guests, leaving many of them saying it was their "best day ever!" We loved having Yvonne at our guest and would recommend her to anyone looking for an entertaining and engaging presenter.
Aleesah Darlison’s visit was a real highlight in our library program this year. Her presentations were extremely engaging and very age appropriate. In particular, the students enjoyed her PowerPoints, use of puppets and props and most of all, her lovely manner.
