• "Our Expectations were that we needed someone to do an Assembly of about 30 mins to a 4-11 audience to link in with our school value of Compassion from a Hindu point of view. We do feel that the expectations were met and that it was obvious a lot of hard work had gone into your presentation. The most useful parts were the story when you included aspects of your own life, as well as including the Hindu prayers and music. Thank you for your hard work. - One of my children came out and said, "I feel, I want to think differently now.
