A wonderful session this morning. I came away totally inspired. My thanks to you and your team, and, of course, to the speaker. At my advanced professional age (!) it was great to come away from a session feeling genuinely excited and enthused.
What a great presentation this morning. Love that vision of where we are going. Looking forward to the next one!
"I can see great potential for BookTalks to engage and inform students and staff right across the curriculum. Thank you BookTalks for providing schools with the opportunity to connect with writers and illustrators in such a relatively easy and affordable way. "

In the fast-moving world of education it is crucial to keep up with philosophical and practical developments that impact upon our students. The CORE Breakfast seminars are often an invigorating start to the day. Practitioners across a range of educational fields present thought-provoking and useful information. I have been impressed with the range of speakers and how they have embraced technological innovations to enhance the pedagogy in their schools.
The National Library staff love these Breakfast Seminars . The speakers are always inspiring and it's a great way to keep up to date with latest developments. I wish we could attend more often and send more staff. A fantastic kick start to the day!
Working with CORE has been an immensely rewarding experience. Seeing the work of the students on-line, engaging with them in conference calls and Skype hook ups, and hosting the competition winners at Weta Workshop has helped to underscore how invigorated and focused kids can be when presented with opportunities that extend and challenge them. We cannot thank the CORE team enough for their work, their support and their insights and for facilitating this opportunity not just for teachers and students, but for us too.
I found the website quite overwhelming as there are so many wonderful resources I didn’t know how to get started. The walk through took me into each of the sections and gave me a clear idea of where to go to find the resources I needed. It was very valuable. I now feel comfortable finding stuff for my staff.
It was a delight to be and work with so many inspiring people, not only from CORE but also the many teachers and school leaders that I had the good fortune to connect with. I’m glad that the feedback from participants at my sessions was positive. It was good to be able to share my own passion, learning’s and mistakes with other educators. I hope that our paths will cross again in the future. Thanks for all your commitment to and hard work for the conference. You have every reason to be proud of it as an exceptional learning opportunity for those who attended.
The conference once again was worthwhile, I’ve attended every year and the caliber of Māori learning and knowledge is simply fantastic, thanks for te whakakotahi i a tatou i raro i te kaupapa nei, can’t wait for next year.”
I was very lucky to get the awesome conference last week. The organisation was outstanding and I felt very privileged to be in an environment where so many people are passionate in helping our children become 21st Century learners.
