TESTIMONIALS

 

We've had the privilege of working with some fantastic schools, teachers and students across South East QLD.

Read the kind words they had to say about working with Leighann Ness Wilson, Director of CREATE ED.

 
I was in awe of how engaged my class was for the whole day. Great activities, great workshop. Totally recommend.
— Head of Innovation
 

The Design for Impact Summit at MFAC, Buderim

"The Schools Engagement Team has just met to look at your draft of the Learning notes – and congratulations!! You should have seen the excitement and buzz from us all discussing what we would do in a class with our students and your ideas.

Loved them – so lovely to be a part of the process from conceptualisation of the exhibition to seeing some valuable, curriculum-connected classroom activities that can live on and encourage schools to engage with the amazing collections here.

You have done a great job."

- Head of Schools Engagement Team

 
It was a time I will never forget because of my friends, the activities, and the amazing creativity around me and within me.
— Year 6 student

“Learning under your tutelage has been such a pleasure all year. Your classes are fun, engaging, imaginative, and inspiring. Although I’m partial to almost all STEAM subjects, biology and earth sciences have never captured my interest as much as the others. But your enthusiasm for and delivery of the content inspired the same enthusiasm in me and that was reflected in the effort that was invested in my work.                                                     

I can say with honesty that in the years to come you will have had a lasting impact on not just my education, but in the way that I teach. The chance to have that impact on students is the reason I chose to change careers and you’ve modelled how to achieve that comprehensively. You’re a credit to your profession and should be congratulated.” 

ACU student feedback received via email at end of Semester 2, 2020

"It is an absolute pleasure to watch you interact with our students; nurturing their curiosity and seamlessly connecting and integrating new content from across the STEAM curriculum areas into the activities. The students are always totally immersed in their learning and fully engaged with the tasks set. It is simply a wonderful thing to watch. 

Please know that I am always impressed by your ability to develop workshops that are uniquely grounded in real-world issues and problems that allow our students to address real social, economic and environmental issues, as they seek original solutions."  

- Queensland Academies Educational Programs Co-ordinator

The Preps are so proud of all of their achievements and we thank you Leighann in helping us see how we can turn an idea into something AMAZING.
