‘We were delighted to welcome Siobhan McDermott for her recent author visit. Her sessions were inspiring, engaging and extremely well received by our students. Siobhan brought great energy and enthusiasm to the day, and students were genuinely excited to hear about her writing and creative process.
She delivered carefully planned and thoughtful workshops that kept both students and staff fully engaged throughout. Her professionalism, preparation and ability to connect with students made the experience both enjoyable and meaningful.
It was a pleasure to have Siobhan visit our school, and we would warmly welcome her back in the future.’
Harrow International School Bangkok
“We had the most fantastic morning with Siobhan. We thought the mixed use of videos, games and anecdotes during the assembly were used in such a clever way and it was obvious that the girls were entertained throughout. Everything was so well prepared down to the last detail.
Siobhan was kind enough to sign copies of her books even though we had surpassed her allocated time for her visit. The workshop was interesting, informative and it was planned in a way that allowed each girl to write something which was inspired by Siobhan's stories.
Her delivery was pitched perfectly for the age groups involved and I just cannot think of anything she could have done better.”
The Cavendish School
'For our school's Literature Festival, Siobhan put together an assembly and series of workshops all about Mixing Myths.
Our Y7s had a fantastic time and are already asking when she is coming back! Thank you so much for a brilliant day!'
Arts and Media School Islington
‘Siobhan set to work inspiring the children with tales from her childhood and they really got a feel for how a book is created.
At the end of the session, they left excited to have met a “real author” and filled with creativity and enthusiasm for writing and you can’t ask for more than that.’
