Tannya was generous with her time and flexible with her presentation. The children were engaged throughout the sessions and came away with a successful drawing. She used kid friendly language, her drawing instruction was simple and appropriately step by step, very interactive, her displays were great and she coped well with the vagaries of technology. She has a different illustrative style to most others which provides breadth of experience for our children. Sydney school, 2024

I wanted to let you know about the success of the Writers’ block event, at Robina branch library and auditorium last Saturday. It was such a good day and the feedback we received on the speakers was overwhelmingly positive. Venero was very engaging, great to work with, and pitched his presentation perfectly for the event. He made it so easy for City Libraries to look good. Thanks for your assistance in finding excellent speakers to make this event so successful.

Simon was great…. He manipulated his presentations to the age level and composition of the audience and handled both the 130 students presentation and the 50 students equally well. Would definitely get Simon back next year again if he’s available.

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

Thank you for the work you did with our girls yesterday. Students and staff alike loved your sessions, and all your books have flown out of the library doors this morning to be used in classrooms. Thank you so much!

We were fortunate to have Gwyneth and Megan present to our students here at All Saints as part of our biannual Livewire Festival this year. The ladies presented information about their books The Travel Adventures of PJ Mouse, in particular the Queensland story. Their presentations were engaging and interesting. They really inspired students to reflect and write about their own travels. This impact continued throughout the semester. We would certainly welcome them back to our school.

Lisa’s presentation was highly engaging, entertaining and informative. A fun and dynamic speaker great at plugging into kid’s imaginations.

After Kathmandu announced the acquisition of Rip Curl, Tim did a magnificent job bringing “The Rip Curl Story” to life at our Kathmandu management conference. He was inspiring, full of humour and very knowledgeable sharing the essence of Rip Curl and its founders. The entire management team – around 70 team members – had a great evening listening to Tim. We are even more excited about partnering up with an iconic brand like Rip Curl after Tim’s presentation.’

Appreciate Sandie's communication and organisation.

Cath’s passion for writing is so infectious – certainly some of the best feedback we’ve had on a speaker.

Extremely useful. I appreciate the depth of content and links. I am a great advocate for picture books in my teaching and now preparing Inquiry Learning packages connected to picture books for our school. My list has just grown!

Fantastic presentation as always. John more than met our expectations, we would definitely use him again as a speaker and recommend him to others.
