"My child is so enthusiastic about this program. We have spent money on a lot of other programs but he will use them for a little while and then loses interest. Now he begs us to stay up an extra hour of a night so he can do more reading and word finds on Intrepica. We are very happy."

M. Jeffery - Parent, QLD

"My student loves using Intrepica so much. The student has severe visual perception problems, as a result of brain damage from epilepsy. He struggles with his reading and although in Yr. 7, he is reading at approximately a Yr. 1 level. My student loves earning the gold awards and proudly wanted me to see his gold award tally. He loves getting more points and will tell me how many points he now has and how many dollars he has earned. He has shown me his avatar and the clothes that he has bought with his money. Intrepica has greatly improved his motivation to read and do reading comprehension; spelling and sight word reading. The student has also improved in the work he is doing for his written work and is much more motivated and independent with this work. I have found the student to be more confident and willing to read and have seen a real improvement in his word recognition and decoding skills."

"Intrepica is awesome! It feels like just playing on a computer game but I'm learning. Phonics is my best part because I've earned all the trophies. I can see straight away that I am doing better."

Michael B. - Year 6, QLD

"I think Intrepica is cool because you are learning while enjoying. My favourite part of Intrepica is spelling. It has helped me spell a lot better."

Tristan M. - Year 6, QLD

"I have never in my whole teaching career come across a program that excites and motivates children to want to learn. That then makes my job so much easier. It is most rewarding to me when I see the children with learning differences, right along the continuum just want to work on Intrepica."

S. Hall - Support Teacher Inclusive Education, St Joseph's Tobruk Memorial School, QLD

"I like Intrepica because it is a fun place to learn. When you play a learning game you earn coins to buy clothes from the shop for your avatar. Cool! I love selecting different looks for my cute little avatar. I also really enjoy the different spelling games, they help me improve my spelling skills. The donkey race in the Arena is a fun competition, although I keep losing."

Marina A. - Year 4, QLD

"My oldest son has been going to reading group for two years, and earlier this year he started using Intrepica. My other son also started on Intrepica and has come up three reading levels in three months at school. Whilst my sons were on the program I realised that my 2 1/2 year old daughter was copying the lady's voice as she spoke. This was a major thing as she doesn't speak much due to a hearing problem. However I started sitting her at the computer in front of level 1 unit 1 of the phonics and she started repeating the vowels and consonants after the lady. I am not sure how much she is absorbing but the fact that she is repeating the tutorial is great on a speech level, and the sitting and concentrating for that few minutes is also great."

M. Tanner - Parent, NSW

"My 6 year old son thanked me for finally letting him play a fun game, instead of all those boring learning games. Four months on he still has not realised it is a learning game; he is so focused on earning money to buy stuff for his avatar. My 10 year old also loves it!"

M. Tanner - Parent, NSW

"I like Intrepica because it makes learning fun! I like the word search and all the stories I can read. I also like the Home, the Shop and the Arena. It is very fun when you can put clothes on your avatar. The avatar is so cute!"

Eva A. - Year 2, QLD

"I am so thrilled about this program. Jack rushed home to do his homework. I cannot believe it. He has never been keen to do any learning work when he gets home. Clever program!"

J. Tierney - Parent, QLD

"We think Intrepica is just wonderful. The avatars look so good and the flash animation is superb! We really LOVE the clothes we can buy for our 'little people'."

C. and J. McIvor - Child Care Practitioners, QLD

"Hello I am alex. I really like Intrepica and how you did it. Even though I have learnt a lot at school there are still some things that I need to improve. But I think that I have improved. I like how you have designed the shop and the home and all the mystery items. It is good to have mystery items then if there is something you want you have to then you have to work to get it."

Alex S. - Year 2, SA

"My son loves Intrepica – so much that when he gets home from school he no longer asks "Mum can I watch TV?" now he asks "Mum can I play Intrepica?" The program has totally engaged him, the rewards built into the program keep him motivated and wanting to achieve more. Since he started using Intrepica we have noticed his vocabulary has increased and his spelling has improved."

K. Shierlaw - Parent, SA

"My students absolutely love Intrepica! We have just started using it and I am asked every day if they can use it!"

A. Oldfield - Prep/1 Teacher, Campbell Street School, TAS

"Our girls love Intrepica. I have to put a timer on so they still have to finish their other homework!"
