"I taught a number of age groups, but Kevin adapted his talk to cater for all of the children. He was very engaging and answered all the questions the kids asked! They loved it and talked about it a lot afterwards. I would thoroughly recommend the Astronomy Education Programme to all teachers."
- Jenni Kelly, Scoil San Nioclįs, Stabannon, Co Louth, teaching in March 2009
"Very good talk all-round, the children thoroughly enjoyed it. He actually gave two talks, one to the 5th and 6th classes, who found it really interesting and had lots of questions, and another talk to the younger kids with another teacher. The talk was even tailored so as not to be too complex for the children." - Margaret O'Doherty (Retiring Principal), Scoil Nioclais Myra, Cork City
"The children really enjoyed it. I like how the talks were tailored for the different age groups: I feel they got a little extra that way." - Noel Heffernan, Principal, Scoil Peadar Agus Pol
