Greater London School It would be great if you could provide a teaching resource. Even something as simple as a DVD of skills would be great. Teachers often go to training days and want to take it back to school. They may do a whole school teacher inset themselves which they could use your resources for. They also may have a gap between the training and their delivery of the circus skills activities in school so resource cards or a DVD can help to refresh their mind. .

Cheshire Brownies Our Brownies thoroughly enjoyed the session which went far too fast. I think I would plan a longer session with a decent break in the middle as we found an hour was just not long enough. .

Greater London School Please can you pass on our thanks to Jebb for all his hard work when he came into our school on Tuesday and Wednesday this week to teach our children so many different circus skills.
He was absolutely fantastic with the children and enabled them to learn so much as well as having lots of fun. We would certainly recommend him and your company to the schools within Wandsworth and hopefully we will be able to invite him back on many more occasions. All the children have spoke highly of him and want to know when he will be back!! Could you also let him know that he has left the feathers here and will assume he will want to pick them up at some point.
Many thanks again and we hope to work with your company and Jebb again in the near future..

Wiltshire Youth Groups We hired the Circus Skills Workshop during our Arts Award Moderation event as a reward for their hard work. The artist, Jem, asked us about the group he would be working with. The workshop was well structured and he catered for special needs of the young people. His performance was ambitious and whetted the appetite of the young people involved. His manner was very friendly and relaxed, yet he maintained control throughout.\nI would highly recommend Shooting Stars and Jem : he truly lived up to his name!!.

Greater London Pupil Referral Unit I found the workshop to be very flexible to our needs and the instructors to be very patient with our young people. They were able to provide age appropriate demontrations and equipment that impressed our age group of five up to sixteen. Working with young people and children who are at-risk and socially disadvantaged is no easy task but I was impressed with the level of engagement. Many thanks.
