Somerset Beavers The Beavers had a great time trying out many activities including stilt walking, balancing feathers, spinning plates and riding tiny bikes! There was something to challenge everyone but they all walked away with a sense of achievement and couldn't stop talking about it! Thanks Steve!.

Cardiff (Caerdydd) Beavers 3rd time we've had you visit us. It's a popular night every time and this year we made juggling balls as a follow up. Certainly suitable for the Beaver Scout age range. We had a 1hour 45 min session and full attention and participation was there throughout. See you again in the future..

Yorkshire, East Riding School We booked a full day workshop for our Year 6 Leavers as an end of school treat. We had an absolutely fantastic day and the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The range and amount of equipment was brilliant; they were all able to take part together. The demonstrations were fun to watch and Dave was quite the comedian! Despite issues with weather, Dave was adaptable, professional and calm throughout.
I would 100% book again and my class echoed this after the session - they asked to do it again the following day! Thank you for helping us to make some wonderful memories..

Leader, 6th Chiswick Brownies & Guides 1st July 2021
Greater London Brownies, Guides Our Brownies, Guides and Rangers had a fabulous evening.
The Brownies were fully engaged the whole time and learned lots of new skills. It was lovely to see them laughing and giggling and helping each other. We've had loads of positive comments from parents saying how much their daughters enjoyed it.
The Guides and Rangers also had a very positive and enjoyable experience. Some of them have specific challenges and each one had a go at something they've never done before and in several cases found a skill that they didn't know they had!.

West Midlands Science Show Cant fault our experience with booking Shooting Stars. Jebb arrived early and was set up in plenty of time. He talked through his plans and asked for my input. The show was excellent and all the students were engaged. The scientific explanations really helped to deepen their understanding of basic physics. The workshops then helped to extend this and the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves in the process! Thank you so much!.

Highlights of the night included one of our tallest leaders trying out the tiny bikes !, a quieter group of Year 7s trying out new things together, our Year 9 lads helping each other on the balancing equipment, and Paul spending time one-on-one teaching a young person unicycling tricks.
Thanks very much for all the fun!.
