Beaver Scout leader 23rd May 2009
Hampshire Scouts We were very pleased with our instructor especially as he had a scouting background and seemed to really enjoy being with us.
It was an extremely hot day and my group were the last to attend a session but the instructor was still very entertaining and professional.
I would highly recommend him.
Correspondence with Steve Grainger was very straight forward via email with quick responses.
Thank you.

Warwickshire Brownies This looks like I havent taken the time to read the questionnaire and just clicked "Excellent" all the way down. This isnt the case. We had an amazing experience the instructor was brilliant and it was just what we wanted and much much more. You deserve the "Excellent" all the way down!
Thank you very much for a really enjoyable evening..

North Yorkshire Youth Groups it was fantastic!!! our group of 11-18 year olds thoroughly enjoyed it and asked if we can do it again!!! they even asked if we can get some of our own equipment!!! the instructor was brilliant with the group too kept them involved, spoke to them, set ground rules etc so we were barely needed - freeing us up to join in!! nothing negative to say! exactly what we were looking for in a workshop!!! it also helped us discover hidden talent!!!.

Teacher 21st May 2009
Greater London School The workshop we had for Year 1 and 2 was excellent and really exciting for the children. They loved using all the eqipment and learning new circus skills and have been practising ever since! We would have liked to have had more time for the children to use the eqipment at the end e.g. to explore the tightrope, unicycle etc independently. We thought the day was such a success, we booked Shooting Stars for Year 6 a few weeks later..

Hampshire Brownies The Brownies loved the circus workshop - however, it would have been helpful to be told that 1 1/2 hours was not enough time for the full workshop. If we had known beforehand we could have arranged for a longer session apparently for the same money, however it was a bit late to find this out after the event. I would however definately reccommend Shooting Stars Circus Skills - it was great fun!!! - Thanks.
