"I would just like to let you know how impressed I have been with the drama classes that Sally has attended. I have noticed a great change in Sally's confidence over the past couple of years and her school teachers have also commented. Probably one of the things that I was most impressed with was the amount of fun that Sally had and her thrill of being involved in such a wonderful performance at the end of each year.
I can remember the first day Sally attended the class where you greeted us so warmly and made Sally feel very much at ease. You continued to greet us with the same warm smile each Saturday and you are always ready to discuss any concerns I might have – I thank you for that." |

| "This is the second year we have thoroughly enjoyed the end of year Drama Presentation. We realise a lot of work is involved and we thank you for allowing the children to practise the skills learnt during the year. We believe the Presentation is for the children's benefit and that it is an added bonus that we parents are able to enjoy it! Thank you for making it possible." |

"I extend my congratulations as a parent of students who attend your classes and as an educational administrator. My sons thoroughly enjoy their "Drama Experience" each week and are always eager to share what they have done when they return. Your enthusiasm, dedication and teaching technique provide a high level of inspiration to the students, and indeed, to my own children.
I also congratulate you on the content of the course and the way in which it is presented. Without doubt, these have proved essential ingredients for the great success of students. The confidence that my children have gained is excellent and their abilities to speak fluently with logical ideas, and progressive thoughts, are indeed partly the product of the drama academy.
I thank you for what you do for children and the excellent work that you and your teachers have tirelessly given to the extra curricula activity that has become part of our weekly calendar. I look forward to the end of year productions and wish you well in the future." |

| "This note of thanks is long overdue. My son Dan, loves his drama class and will definitely be one of your long-term students. I am so impressed with Helen O'Grady's wonderful track record that I wanted to write and say "Congratulations!". She should feel extremely proud of herself. Not many have ventured as far or achieved as much. What a wonderful Australian she is! Thank you all for refining one of our greatest natural resources – our children!" |

| "You may remember that last year I finally left the Academy after having spent seven years with the Cottesloe studio at both Upper Primary and Youth Theatre levels. Although I miss the fun and enjoyment of the classes and end of year productions, the valuable lessons and skills I have learnt have proven to be of great service in both my social life and beyond, and will probably remain with me for the rest of my life." |

| "During the parents' presentation a couple of weeks ago, I couldn't help but notice how Craig had matured and gained in confidence and self esteem in the years he has been with you. For this I thank you enormously and hope that this will help Craig in future years in whatever he chooses to do. Once again, I would like you to know how important you have been in making Craig the confident well spoken young boy he has become." |
