Several
people have contributed to the development of our presentations
over the last 20 years, most of whom have gone on to other things.
Still we need to particularly acknowledge...
James
Graewolfe has an undergraduate degree in history, and has recently
completed his Dip. Ed. He
has also worked extensively with educational incursion companies
running history or science incursion programs throughout
Queensland, NSW, and Victoria, and has received superb reviews from
hundreds of schools.
James
is responsible for designing some of the best of our presentations,
including Medieval Arms & Armour and Fashion and
Dress, and Ancient Warriors & Warfare and
Gladiators.
James
is usually contracted to schools these days, but continues to help
us out as an emergency if his schedule allows.
