Teacher 7th February 2011
Derbyshire School Paul perfectly judged the childrens involvement quickly interacting and encouraging the year 2 participans. Any deficiencies in the day were down to two things, the first being that we could only afford half a day and the second that as a year group of 43, Shooting starts could not accomodate all of us in one session, meaning that we had in effect a 1/4 of the experience other schools may have had. All this said, even our very short session was a great benefit to the children who got a great deal out of the day. I would highly recomend the group, but advise that you try for the whole day.\nThank you for your help Paul..

Essex School Our Brownies thoroughly enjoyed the session we had with Winston and wished that it could have been longer. They loved all the new skills he showed them and were disappointed that there was not enough time to learn more. They are looking forward to when we can have a return visit..

Merseyside Youth Groups Thank you so much for a wonderful evening. The instructor Stuart Hill could not have been more helpful,friendly or enthusiastic and the children totally enjoyed the session and most of them came away having learned at least one new skill. Will definately book again! Many thanks again, from the Leaders and children from J Club at St Marys, Grassendale.

Merseyside School Winston was a pleasure to work with. The children learned a whole variety of new skills, and had lots of fun too! He had a very good rapport with them, and managed the group some of whom are very lively! extremely well. We hope to put on our own circus show at the end of this half term amd Winston gave us advice on music to use, most suitable props etc. We all had a really enjoyable day, and I will certainly be recommending Winston to colleagues..

Oxfordshire School An excellent afternoon with an excellent instructor. The children loved it. A bit of a shame that some of the equipment was wet. I was looking forward to seeing the children juggle with the cloths but we could not use them. Maybe equipment could be checked that it is usable the day before and fabrics could be kept indoors.
However, this didnt spoil the afternoon and it was lovely to watch the dropping of childrens jaws when skills were demonstrated..

They loved all the different skills and got so much out of it.\nAs one child said \"Miss Butterworth, this is brilliant...it's the best day ever...it's even better than Christmas!\"\nAnyway, I just wanted to pass on my appreciation and thanks.\nBest wishes, Karen.

Brownie Leader 12th November 2010
Berkshire Brownies Very good instructor who was polite, helpful and punctual. He was very good with the children and patient in helping them and I think they all had a fun evening. However they were very noisy. I feel demos should have been done before giving the children the equipment. Once they had equipment they wanted to play with it rather than listen to what to do with it. Only 1 instructor - we had 2 last time which I think you need for this age group 7-10. As a leader I dont feel this ran as smoothly as last year- it felt like chaos at times. Would possibly book again although I do feel it was expensive for just 2 hours. .
