SCHOOL’S FEEDBACK

'Paul pitched his talks and activities perfectly.  He adapted them to suit the needs of every age group and the children were completely engaged.  The afternoon workshop took the students through a creative process that resulted in each child having produced a story with illustrations.  The whole day was fantastic and I would highly recommend Paul to other schools.'

KIRSTEN PUDDICK - Librarian at Holy Cross School, Miramar

Paul’s visit was a real highlight of our book week. Paul involved the students straight away and held their attention with his interactive, insightful and humorous presentation. The students particularly enjoyed the portrait activity Paul directed at the end of each session. His visit led to some wonderful discussions about the process of writing and illustrating a book and we are grateful he shared his time and talent with our school.  

ANNA GERRITSEN - Librarian at Ss Peter and Paul School, Lower Hutt

Paul has visited our school twice in the last couple of years. Each time he fully engaged and entertained the children. They particularly enjoyed creating their own versions of Mrs Mo’s Monster. I would thoroughly recommend Paul to other schools.
