We all had a fabulous day! Paul worked so hard throughout the day with pupils aged 3-11 years and staff (with a somewhat wider age range).We were impressed with his capacity to give 110% throughout the day - he just kept delivering top quality input and enthusiasm! Comments from pupils, staff and parents have all been very complimentary and the Shooting Stars workshop proved to be an excellent way to celebrate our - Helen Fathers, Headteacher

The children and staff thoroughly enjoyed the workshops. Each child was able to try something new and have a successful experience. There was much laughter and fun in exploring new ideas.- Jo Claridge, Teacher

“A most worth while activity that promotes team building and the development of a wide range of co-ordination skills.”- Ray McGovern, Deputy Head

“Mr Steve Grainger and his partner spent a whole week working with a group of 13 students aged 13 – 17 in January this year. The tuition was excellent, with workshops focusing on specific skills. An excellent variety of teaching methods was employed. A good awareness of the need to maintain interest levels was shown: activities were broken into manageable chunks which helped to maintain concentration. Excellent working relationships developed between tutors and learners. Students really enjoyed all aspects of Circus Skills Week, especially the show. This confirmed that the experience was valuable not only for developing physical, co-ordination skills but also inter-personal and communication skills. Changes in the students’ body language were also noted during the week. To sum up: a very successful, worthwhile experience for students and staff, one which was generously resourced and efficiently managed by Mr Grainger and partner. Extremely good value for money.”- Graeme Cozens

“Excellent! It was a great day. Good value. The pupils really enjoyed it, almost as much as the staff!”- Kathy Maddocks

“It was with nervous caution that we all welcomed your team late in the summer term to entertain and train our school of secondary aged boys, all of whom have statements for emotional and/or behavioural difficulties. Our primary concern, knowing their limited concentration spans and short fuses, was how you would engage them for a whole day? We were suitably impressed.
It was a most productive and rewarding day for the students and the staff. So much so, that a unicycle has been purchased and has been written into an individual education plans for one of our more difficult students. We all look forward to working with you and your team next year. Many thanks.”
