Paul was absolutely fantastic. He arrived promptly and set up quickly. The brownies were kept thoroughly entertained whilst learning many amazing circus skills. Leaders were also encouraged to join in and I confess I am about to order myself a new set of juggling balls as completely addicted! I would recommend Shooting Stars, as apart from all of the above they were also very good value for money.
Thanks again- Maggi Coen, Assistant Brownie Leader

My Brownies had a terrific time! The instructor was very kind and patient, and I had all positive feedback from the children and the parents who observed the end of the session.

I would definitely recommend Shooting Stars and am happy to supply references when asked. - Debbie, Brownie leader

We booked Shooting Stars for our Queen Diamond Jubilee celebrations - and the Brownies had the most amazing time. Jebb was brilliant - he had them enthralled, entertained and thoroughly engaged, but also had a keen eye to safety.

I'd certainly use Shooting Stars again, and heartily recommend them to anyone wanting a circus skills workshop for their youth group.- Alison Cotterill, Unit Leader, 2nd Dorking Brownies

Did not see too much of the show but what I did see looked good with a lot of children enjoying themselves. - Bob Morgan, Council Officer

The young carers and staff thoroughly enjoyed the Circus Skills Session. They rose to the challenge of learning new skills and the importance of try, try and try again. A thoroughly enjoyable way to spend 2 hours. A good range of activities were provided to meet the needs of all the children involved- TRUDY WAITE, SUPPORT WORKER

We have had various workshops come and visit us in the past but they just dont compare to this. The brownies all thought it was brilliant and I know that they were completely in awe of our instructor...he really did impress them and it is often hard to impress 20 9-11 year olds! I have had phonecalls from most of the parents commenting on how fantastic the evening was and how much their girls enjoyed it. At least half of the parents are now looking at contacting Shooting stars for birthday parties or suggesting the company to their childrens school.- Emma Roberts, Unit Guider

Enjoyed by all- 10th Purley Guides, Guider in Charge

Excellent! You were truly fantastic, and really helped to make our family fun day a great success. Nathan is a great asset your company and interacted really well with both adults and children alike.

An enjoyable day that appealed to all age groups including the adults!- Carol Lowries, Childrens Centre Co-ordinator

Russ was prompt, really good with our young people and, when needed, had the patience of a saint.

Russ was a real pleasure to work with and made some valuable observalutions in our debrief meetings. - Ollie Francis, Project Manager - Summer Arts Project

Dear Steve/Jebb
This is just to say how much the Guides and Brownies enjoyed last Friday evening. They thought Jebb was a fantastic teacher and they thought participating in all the activities was great as was watching Jebb do all his tricks. As for the leaders, we much appreciated all the effort and time that Jebb put in to make the session so relaxed and friendly. Jebb is a great asset to your company. We hope that some time in the future we will be able to have another visit from you. With many thanks from all of us.
- Gill Rogers, Guider

All great - my Brownies really enjoyed it.!!- Pam Couch, Brown Owl

Sorry about the weather! You seemed to keep a lot of wet young farmers occupied and happy. Thanks- Stella Fuller
