Great and efficient communication!

An author, a bear and a pyjama parade, oh my! The Claremont Community Hub & Library hosted Sharon during Book Week 2021. The children [and parents] both watched on as she brought her heart-warming and funny book “Bedtime Daddy” alive. Sharon was a skillful storyteller who clearly knows how to engage with her audience. Of course, a book about bedtime meant we got to wear our pjs to work… Best day ever!

Kim Michelle Toft delighted our Year Three students during her recent visit. Kim is a vibrant and entertaining speaker who not only shared her experiences as an author but also entertained the audience with book reading, singing and dancing. One of the highlights was watching her paint in 'real-time' - what a talented person! The school has purchased her silk painting as a beautiful momento of her amazing visit.

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

It was so lovely having you here. The girls really loved it and you had a wonderful disarming way with them. Thank you so much.

We were lucky to have Annaleise visit our school for Book Week. Her visit aligned with our Year 3/4 English unit of work where classes read her book Losing the Plot. Annaleise was professional to work with, approachable for preparation for the event and very organised on the day. She was flexible and adaptable to the needs of our school and classes. Annaleise tailored her highly engaging Grimms’ fairytales author talk to meet the needs of our unit of work. Following the presentation, students we [...]

Candice entertained our P-3's with her stories. The students loved the puppets and getting to be part of the show. Candice's interacted wonderfully with our students and catered for all of the levels in the different classes.

David was personable, great with the kids, interesting and fun! Kids learnt a lot as did the teachers

Gregg was nothing short of amazing, we so loved his participation in our event. He was fun, engaging, collaborative and super professional.

The workshop was engaging and the boys were immediately hands-on.

Amy is a long-standing member of the Romance Writers’ of Australia and was our closing keynote speaker for our 2019 annual conference held in Melbourne. Our conference closing keynote address aims to provide our delegates with an uplifting experience that leaves them invigorated and eager to continue their writing journey. Amy proved to be a witty and engaging speaker, using personal antidotes to connect with her audience. I found her to be professional, punctual, open and honest in her dealing [...]

Sandhya Parappukkaran’s session was focused on brainstorming ideas for writing topics. The students left the session truly inspired, begging to continue with their ideas when we returned to class. We have since been able to use these techniques in the classroom. This was an excellent session where the students learnt great skills, including incorporating their own cultures or special memories into their writing.

Could not have been any better. Karen was so accommodating, engaging and helpful. We LOVED it.
