What people are saying
The Rhyme and Meter Workshop was so fun and engaging. Our students were left clapping out rhyming books all afternoon!. Thank you for putting together such an interactive session.
It was a delight to have Lucia present to our P-2 students as she was very engaging, well prepared and easy to work with. She shared her techniques and original art work with the students and they were thoroughly engrossed when she provided the opportunity for them to draw with her and learn some new skills. She adapted her sessions to the age of the students and her books have been flying off the shelves. Great presentation!
Speakers Ink provides a wonderful service. They were particularly helpful in adapting my booking due to timetabling constraints and offered the flexibility I needed to make our visit work
Nadia engaged the students and they enjoyed her humour. Nadia was able to adapt to the wide range of age groups from Kindy to year 6. The teachers appreciated her focus on using "imagination"
'Thank you so much for your visit - the students loved it and your books are in high circulation. We would be very happy to recommend you to any library!!
Josie was very well received for her generous and genuine talk about what it is to be a writer and how to get started. The students, teachers and parents from the Fascinate writing program really responded to Josie's talk
Irena is a wonderful woman. At all times she was co-operative and willing to contribute her time and talent for the service of others. Her attitude and presentation were always first class. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Irena as an Artist-in Residence
Leigh was incredibly well organised and extremely engaging for our entire school. He managed to run 3 sessions that were interactive and inspiring for all 900 of our students.

The activities also gave them a good chance to learn and speak English and cultivate children' their interest in reading. We hope Dr Sarah, you can visit next year again.
It was really really good and I liked going through the photos. She took a really good photo and we all didn't know it was a fake! I enjoyed that she had a lot of description about how she made her three books come together. She told us about the prehistoric times and the characters. It was fun. Jo gave us tips for our writing and it was nice to know that new and different stuff.
Tim Harris delighted our upper primary students and their teachers with his creative writing workshops. Tim engaged the students with his hacks for narrative writing and the teachers could not have been happier with the content. Tim modified his workshop for each year level. His books are very much in demand in our library.
Paridhi visited our classroom last term to motivate the children's narrative writing. She demonstrated how she illustrates her story books, read one of her stories and completed some guided drawing with the students. The children were very engaged and interested in Paridhi presentation. They were wowed when she used her technology to show how her draft drawings could be turned into the finished coloured illustrations. The students also loved her story book, Maharaja’s Quest, and enjoyed findin [...]
