Many children would never normally have the opportunity to meet a 'real life' author so it was nice for them to have the chance to see the book and the author at the same time. Robert was patient, keen and enthusiastic to answer all students' questions. Author visits encourage children to try and write their own stories and never give up. Our students left talking about writing and illustrating their own books. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks so much Vicki for your presentations to the year 9s, especially your patience with the kids! They really enjoyed your talk. Thanks again.

Sarah taught me a lot about being more creative. Her session truly opened my mind. She's clear in message, and compassionate in approach.

Katherine was an entertaining speaker and our students enjoyed her presentation and workshop. I would recommend her and Speakers Ink, as both were professional, friendly, and excellent for our school.

James Roy is a fabulous story teller. He had our year 7 & 8's enthralled. Staff and students enjoyed the day and we would welcome James back any time.

Fantastic connection to the students, very easy going and such a humble man.

The speaker engaged the students. Students were impressed by the presentation.

I would really like Samantha Wheeler to come back to our school next year. I loved how she is an author, and she made my want to be an author as w [...]

Susy Boyer did an interactive chalk pastel workshop with our class 1 and 2 children. I had been to a workshop with Susy in previous years at another school and thought of her instantly when organizing a drawing workshop with young children. Susy is very professional and teaches the children with a calm and patient manner. She was well received by teachers and children, who all got more than they were expecting from the workshop and I would be happy to use Susy’s services again.
