all the brownies thoroughly enjoyed the circus skills workshop, there were lots of different equipment for the brownies to try. Paul had all the brownies engaged in what he was demonstrating before they got to have a go themselves. The brownies were very focused when trying to masking the skill they were trying to learn especially when they had a competition who could balance a feather on they finger the longest. Thank you for giving the brownies an experience they will never forget, and would defiantly be calling on you again in the future..

I cannot recommend this activity highly enough. This was yet another brilliant session with Steve and the Cubs loved it. Steve has such a lovely way with the children, they all sat and listened to him and watched his demonstrations open mouthed. His instructions were clear and relevant and everyone achieved so much more than they thought they would! Roll on the next one... I for one, cant wait!.

Dave was fantastic from the minute he entered the building. He had a great rapport with both staff and pupils. He made sure that the 'show' was tailored to our school and our children. The pupils have not stopped talking about it- so much so, that they have persuaded me to buy new circus skills equipment for the playground! Would highly recommend!.

Shotting Stars have now been to see us twice, and both nights were absolutely fantastic. The cubs were all engaged, had loads of fun and also learnt things.

Paul is really clear with his instructions and is also really patient - but best of all he made them all laugh...a lot.

We will definitely be using Shooting Stars again.

Thank you for a fabulous workshop. All the children were engaged and loved learning new skills. They all had big smiles on their faces. I even learnt to juggle at the age of 44 😀.

Family Event
This was the third consecutive year that we requested Jebb for our January Wassail and, as usual, he delivered bringing much pleasure to both adults and children alike. The event doesn’t start until it’s dark so Jebb’s specialty of juggling with fire sticks and glowing wands is a great addition to the attractions arranged for our visitors. His ability to engage effortlessly with children makes him a great asset and he can be relied on completely to add his unique skills to our popular event..
