Sue exceeded expectations. She was brilliant and received great feedback from our participants. Thank you for your service. It is great to work with such an organised team.

I thoroughly enjoyed Juliette's visit. She was bright happy and energetic and honest. We all loved her sense of humour. I loved the way she opened up about a writer’s life and her family, the children could really identify with her. Room 3's eyes were alight when she read the book we had focused on. It was great for the students to have Juliette explain how she created 'Gwendolyn' as that was the book that was assigned to our class. It was particularly great for the children to see how an auth [...]

I am always impressed with the prompt service whenever I ask for recommendations for authors to come to our school. I have used this agency for many years and am very happy with the professionalism displayed.

Gregg was flexible, warm, friendly and professional. He was so easy to work with prior to his coming as we planned the sessions, and he was so generous of himself, his cultural knowledge, and illustrative processes with our students. We are so impressed with Gregg and so appreciative of his time; we will definitely seek to book him again when we do this unit in again in two years' time.

Alison presented to our Year 7s as part of their work in English on writing from a perspective as a historical figure. She held the students’ interest with her calm delivery and engaging stories about how she used historical research into her own middle grade novel, inspiring them to weave interesting facts into their own work. Ali was easy to work with and very professional; I was particularly impressed with how she linked our students’ work with her own presentation to make it even more relata [...]

Both Michelle and Pat were very well received at our school. They were organised and what they presented was engaging for the students. We had positive feedback from both staff and students. Thanks very much.

Cori Brooke came for our Author visit to our College for Book Week 2025. She shared her collection of stories with our Prep to Yr 6 students. The Infant school (Prep-2) really enjoyed when she read her stories with her wide variety of hats. The Junior school also had the opportunity to ask her about writing and she was willing to share the ups and downs of being an author. Since her visit, our students have been eager to read her books that we have in our library and keep asking when the next [...]

I just wanted to thank you on behalf of Ormiston College. Our guest visitors certainly enjoyed your presentation and as one person said on leaving “From now on I will be looking for his cartoon before I even read the front page.” Thank you again for being a part of our 25th Anniversary Literary Lunch.

Francis gave an engaging talk to our students on writing feature articles based on her experiences. The practical activities she used with the students were great.

We had a lovely Literature Event yesterday. Randa was fantastic, her sessions were thought-provoking, everything went smoothly and we have had great feedback from the staff and students. We are now thinking about next year and would love to have Randa back. We had a great time, thanks so much.

Insightful, professional and pleasant for jarjum. Very welcoming and easy to work with, and a great experience for all involved.

What a joy Carla Salmon is! Her genuine delight at being able to share the love she has for her novel spills over into every aspect of her presentation. Students walked away brimming with ideas for character, setting and story. Carla’s passion is contagious! My highest recommendation comes with all the exclamation points!!

Kellie presented to our whole school from Kindy to Year 6 and adjusted her presentations to fit the different year groups. She was engaging and well prepared. Both staff and students enjoyed her presentations and gave very positive feedback.
