Stuart arrived in good time to set up and be ready for a very busy day. He was enthusiastic all day and the kids loved what was on offer to try and learn. Would have no hesitation in booking Shooting Stars again as great experience. Thanks ever so much.

Fantastic experience for our Beaver Group. We booked a whole day session for the group (10-4pm) and then continued with a sleepover. It was brilliant to see the young people learn new skills and as they had time, they were really able to practise and develop them further. The instructor was really good with them, very interactive and encouraging. A great experience for the whole group with lots of fantastic memories..

The instructor Paul we had was great he was really interactive with all the Brownies and they all had a great time.
Even having messages from the parents saying the girls were buzzing still when they got and and would not stop talking about it.
We would definitely use you again and would recommend using you to anyone wanting to do circus skills.
Thank you

The children and the parents/carers were very impressed by the Circus skills worshop.

The Rainbows had a great time, and thoroughly enjoyed learning new skills and putting them into practice, and it was lovely to see their confidence grow as the session progressed. Jebb was, as always, very engaging and kept their interest. The part of the session they enjoyed the most was the 'free form' time towards the end where they could choose the equipment they wanted to use - though there was a bit of a queue for the bikes!.

The instructor was exceptionally good at maintaining the interest of 6-8 year olds and explaining to them in a way they could easily understand. The amount of practical instruction was just right with time available for the Beavers to practise what they had been told before moving on to more advanced ways..

Circus skills is a great way to engage students, there is such a variety of activities that it caters to all abilities. The instructors are also great at getting students involved and progressing them through the various activities and increasing/decreasing the difficulty levels as and when required. We highly recommend shooting stars..
