Testimonials
"Excellent presenter. Pupils thoroughly Tony's visit to school. Parents stated afterwards that the visit was very interesting and enjoyed by all."
"Tony's presentation was excellent and he engaged both parents and children in a very informative and interactive session on birds of prey. In one class the children followed up on his talk by doing a project on the Sky Hawk."
"Tony's presentation was superb and was thoroughly enjoyed by parents and children. He was very well prepared and imparted a tremendous amount of knowledge to the students."
"Tony was absolutely excellent. He was well prepared, he engaged both children & parents in his presentation and sent on resources after his visit which the teachers used to follow up on the learning from his visit. A thoroughly enjoyable and educational experience which added greatly to the success of our One Book One Community project."
"Tony had great resources that the children loved being able to touch. The class that went outside were fascinated by what they saw and they all loved the Youtube clip. It was suggested that perhaps a Powerpoint would be great for the visual learners and maybe have a little more classroom management. Tony explained his work clearly and had the children engrossed in the topic. Thanks tony!"

"We had a great day with Tony. He came to school very well prepared with all of the necessary equipment to conduct our field study in the woodland habitat beside the school. He also had worksheets prepared for the children and had identification charts of leaves and minibeasts available to the children. He gave just the right amount of information to each class before letting them explore the habitat . He identified the leaves and minibeasts which the children discovered. The children learned a huge amount from his visit to the school." - Scoil Mhuire na Trocaire, Cork

"Tony was very obliging and helpful and all the classes that wanted to go out with him got the opportunity to do so. He is a font of knowledge about the natural world and the focus on native trees was apt for the time of the year and for the children, who learned how to identify our native and non-native tree species - many for the first time." - Glenville NS, Cork
