Songs For You

Listening to Joan was like reading a book, taking in all that information and picturing it in your mind. Her stories are so curious and involving. There are hardships and heartbreaks, but a bountiful amount of wonderful and extraordinary things that we've had the pleasure of turning into a song. 

 18-year-old Songwriter Jack Crawford (VIC)

It’s an honour that I’ve met you, something that I’ll treasure for the rest of my life. You have changed a lot of my ideas about young people today, who think that when you’re old and should be disregarded. But the respect that you have given me, has changed me and I thank you very much.

My heart is so full, I feel like it is exploding. Watching the students transform because of the connections they have made; students who didn't want to ever do presentations, who have done them, because they are doing them for someone else.
