Jan Latta was an excellent speaker and we got a lot of positive feedback.

Lachlann is a wonderful, energetic presenter. His energy encourages a new love of writing narratives. His workshops have engaged the unengaged writers and given them a format to build their creative worlds. Thank you, Lachlann, for the wonderful world you have opened to me and my students.

David quickly established a rapport with students from Years 7-11. Everyone was enthralled and thoroughly entertained. Staff and students alike were very impressed by his ideas and his art in communication.

Both Veresdale and Woodhill schools enjoyed Martin's Visits. The children loved seeing the process that Martin engages in when illustrating and contributing their ideas. He captured their imagination and encouraged them to experiment with ideas and drawing etc. Thank you for recommending Martin for our visit this year.

Anisa engaged well with the students and they are still raving about her performance.

Tristan was on time, well-prepared and very engaging. He pitched his talk to Year 7s perfectly and it was a good mix of talk, video and music. Students commented very favourably afterwards and hopefully picked up some useful tips for creative writing.

I saw students who are normally reluctant to read or write actually ENJOY writing stories today!

Karen was amazing with the children. She got them to open up and think about things in a different way.

The visit from Louise Park was wonderful. She was fabulous with the students and they were very engaged. I have subsequently had many requests from students to borrow her book.

Just a quick email to let you know how wonderful Mark Svendsen was. He was terrific and just "struck the right note" with everyone. All the feedback has been very positive, both about the keynote speech, and the two workshops. I'd really like to get him to come to our school for some student writing workshops next year.

Andy had a well organised, engaging and interactive presentation. He shared some of his published books, talking about the process of getting a book to a published state. Andy also brought in his version of a 'writer's notebook', which tied in very well with our students' own launch of personal writer's notebooks. Andy was engaging and entertaining for our yr 3-6 students, with his sketching and involving them in doing their own 'two animal' sketch.

Thanks for all the work you do behind the scenes to enable these great things to happen.

Charlie’s visit exceeded our expectations – he was great and the kids loved him! He was also a pleasure to work with, was always accommodating and always communicated with us promptly on email. He was outstanding!

Engaged, enthralled and enraptured with Karen and Steve who got dressed up as book characters. They captured their audience who asked a load of questions.
