Thank you so much for visiting us. The children and staff had an amazing day! Jason's wit and enthusiasm captivated us from start to finish - I've not stopped humming his song all week! Would highly recommend.

Ken was brilliant. His workshops were thoroughly enjoyed by all the students. He worked with the whole of year 8 in a large workshop and also in small groups with year 10 and 9, all the students were engaged. It was amazing how quickly he got them writing creative pieces. Ken also did a year 7 assembly, we had some ICT issues which he was unfazed by and delivered the session with out his ppt, which really helped us. Would certainly book Ken again

We spent a delightful afternoon with Penny at KGGS. I thought Penny's choice of reading from I Have No Secrets hit just the right spot, the talk was well paced and interesting. The students asked lots of questions and were clearly engaged. We also sold a lot of books. The combination of thriller/protagonists with disabilities works well in highlighting diversity issues in schools.

Cat was very professional and the students engaged throughout each session. One student even advised their teacher that it was the "best lesson ever!" Cat verbally praised each student and gave time for each student to share their answers with their peers, which thus boosted their confidence. A great day was had by all.

Thank you Lou for a fantastic visit. The communication beforehand was very efficient and we loved receiving books to read before your visit. You were very adaptable and the children (and staff) loved the sessions. Thank you so much for making our book week so special!

We had Mark visit our school to deliver a whole school assembly and then workshops for different year groups. To say the children enjoyed it would be an understatement!
During the assembly both children and staff were fully engaged, even up and dancing at one point! His use of language and story telling ability truly captured their attention and imagination.
Throughout the workshops, you could hear a point drop. The children were fully engaged in learning how to draw a dragon which they then took back to their class to use as a writing stimulus.
The day was a thorough success, including the book sale at the end, and I would highly recommend a visit by Mark to any school!

Seth joined us for two days at three campuses. Over the course of both days, Seth led an online assembly, delivered several writing workshops, and judged a competition we had been running as part of our World Book Day celebrations. Seth was professional and flexible, and his delivery was pitched perfectly to meet the needs of our pupils. Pupils engaged well with him and enjoyed asking a variety of questions. We would highly recommend Seth to other schools.
