When I returned to St Georges the entire school was a buzz with your show -the students, the aides, the staff, the principal. You made a HUGE impact. Staff that had been at the school longest said that it was the most 'at the right level' and engaging show that the kids had ever had. They also said that they had wished I was there to see the faces of the kids. All of the kids were telling me about it. Where they sat, how you were playing in the sunshine and wouldn't come in to do the show Phil, how Susie told you off, how you banged your guitar and played it round the wrong way, how you let them up the front to dance and do actions, where they had sat in the hall, all about your clapping hat -on and on it went. The kids were most animated and enthusiastic telling me about it. WELL DONE to both of you. You have done so well. You both have shared a very special gift here and given it to children who are able to be given only a very few gifts.

A HUGE thank-you for coming and performing for our students on Monday. The students thoroughly enjoyed the show, and it was AMAZING to see some of our older boys leaving their inhibitions behind and participating in all aspects of your show. It is often hard to motivate some of our boys but your show provided the stimulation, humour and active participation that was needed to help them to relax, and enjoy music and performance.
We have put up a display of photos from your performance in our performing arts room which has quickly become a popular discussion point! The staff who attended the performance were most impressed and some in awe!
Thank-you again for visiting our school, and we look forward to continuing to use your music and resources as the back bone to our performing arts program.
