Children loved all of the activities and were trying them out days later in the playground - as we have the plates as a play activity. \nStaff enjoyed watching and participated and commented on the way less able children were encouraged to take part in spite of disablities.\nThanks..

All my staff - foundation to year 6 commented that your trainers adopted highly appropiate activities for the age groups they were working with. Interest and enjoyment levels were high and the trainers were highly personable and co-operative. In all, a very successful event..

We are a school for children with emotional and behaviour difficulties, our children are not always easy to engage. Paul Hawkins was mavellous with them. They enjoyed every minute of the day and gained so much, especially in confidence. The way he developed their skills was excellent. The pace of each activity was just right for each group.\nIt was the childrens favourite activity in a busy week. Thank you.\nCan you please pass on our thanks to Paul for the tremendous work he did with our children. They had a brilliant time and this was largely down to Paul's excellent management of them. The Structure of the sessions was excellent. The children were on task all the time and he dealt with them with extreme sensitivity.\nAll our staff were highly impressed - and that's not easy! They're a pretty cynical lot!\nOnce again, our thanks to Paul, and yourself for making all the arrangements..

Waverly is a school for pupils with servere and profound learning difficulties, just to give a bit of a background. All the pupils had a chance to join in, even with the tightrope walking.\nThe demonstrations were good but could of been a little more small group or individual as some of our pupils have problems focusing on things that are away from them. \nStaff participation was at a height - one teacher nearly broke his neck trying to have a go at EVERYTHING.\nGenerally a great time was had by all and we are saving up for another go. Thank you..

We had 50 children aged from 4 1/2 to 12 years old at our holiday club. All the children had a terrific day with lots of opportunity to try out new skills from plate spinning to riding a unicycle. A wonderful day was had by all (staff included). We would definitely use again in our holiday club..

Our cub camp based on the 'Circus' proved to be enjoyable made all the more so by your skills in performing and teaching of circus skills. Every cub and leader came away having learned a new skill. Your teaching was at the level of the children and you kept every group of 25 - 30 interested and wanting to learn more. \nAll skills were good for co-ordination and concentration.\nWell done on a superb day..

Both I and my children realy enjoyed ourselves. We all found that over the days, we met new people and more importantly we all bonded. I was pleased to recieve my certificate for ball bounce juggling, but even more pleased to be called 'cool' by the children. It was a nice experience to be 'taught' with the children intead of 'teaching' them, we all learnt alot from each other.\nHazel Harper (level 2 drop baller!!!) .

I've meant to be in touch before now to thank Paul for such an enjoyable\nday on the 21st. The students were appreciative when they spoke to me\nafterwards and several went out and bought themselves juggling balls and\ndevil sticks and tell me they'll be busking in the holidays! I've\nachieved a pb of 24 in my juggling which I feel triumphant about.\nI've recommended you to colleagues in other schools and if we have an\nactivities week again next year (I hope so)I'll certainly be in touch.\nOnce again, thank-you.
