Phil was engaging for the children and taught them about the importance of reading, and the writing process. They liked him and listened to him and have been more engaged in their reading and writing since. Phil is an excellent speaker, as well as an interesting and agreeable personality, that I would highly recommend to other primary schools.

St. Anthony's Primary School, Alexandra Hills - August 2022

Phil created a lovely rapport with our students and teachers. He shared some great writing tips and reminded our students that inspiration exists everywhere!

Marymount Primary School - August 2022

Phil gave a great virtual presentation. He altered his content and delivery from Prep to year 2 really well.

Eagle Junction State School - October 2020

It was with pleasure that we welcomed Phil through the Virtual Author Visit last week. The process was successful and Phil had the children eating out of his hands! He answered many questions and spoke passionately about his writing. The kids were engaged and enthused. Thank you so much for the opportunity. We look forward to negotiating Phil's presence in person at our 2020 Writers Festival.

St Mary's Primary School - October 2019

Both authors were great for their target age groups (Phil Kettle and James Roy). Very easy to deal with – no difficult request and amiable to students and staff.
Would certainly recommend them.
Here are some of the student’s comments:
“I was inspired to write more stories and read more books” (Moya 3B)
“It was inspiring!” Lewis 3B
