OUR LITERARY FESTIVALS
This year we're organising one-day literary festivals in Rockhampton, Emerald, Yeppoon and Craigieburn. Give us a call if you would like us to organise one for you. They're not as expensive as you might think.
We've also organised a few PD seminars for teachers, librarians and literacy co-ordinators. If you've been to our Keeping Books Alive seminars, you'll know how good they are.
We have time to run one more during 2013 if anyone is interested.
EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST SOUGHT
We can run a PD session in either May or June. Please get in touch re your preferred date/s. Check out the Creative Net Speakers' Agency to see some of the presenters we have used at past seminars.
