Berkshire School The parents enjoyed watching their children preform in the 'Big Top' show and we are delighted by how much the childrens skills have built upon each year and practised in the playground!\nThe children have enjoyed their workshop sessions, the range of design technology and science activities and the opportunity to write in different styles for a range of audiences.\nThe excitement of Circus week and the quality of work generated across all areas of the curriculum was inspiring and all thanks to Shooting Stars. We also want to thank you for the loan of equipment, ICT software and Big Top Tents for reception and class one.\nThank you also for donating the money raised by the two after school workshops back to us to enable us to restock our circus equipment and buy some exciting new pieces..

West Midlands School Dear Steve,\nFollowing the good fun at your training course I've now done my first lunchtime session with 6 Year 2s - WOW they were just as excited and giggly as i was, after the session they ran across the playground to immediatly tell all their friends what they'd been doing (feather balancing) and are really enthusiastic for next weeks session, can we come tomorrow they asked! \nFantastic.\nI've given the Head dates of your availability so will get in touch as soon as she comes back to me.\nThe children were just so enthused about the whole thing i just had to let you know.\nNo doubt you get this good buzz often.\nI will contact you soon, \nJane Cradock.\n.

Staffordshire School Thank you so much. Paul was fabulous with our pupils and the whole day was everything I hoped for and more. The pupils were thrilled with everything and they went home buzzing!\nOur A&T do-ordinater was very impressed and has agreed to at least two more days next year so i'll be in touch after the christmas break.\nI'd also like to buy some circus equipment so we can practice after school.\nThank you once again and a Merry Christmas to all of you..

Staffordshire School Excellent H & S talk at start and during workshop. Interest levels were 'Sky High!' All the pupils were thrilled with the day. Thanks to Paul's encouragement the more able began to tutor the more unsure pupils. Many of the pupils were amazed at the rate their skills developed, skills they didn't know they had. Their confidence has grown as a direct result of the day and there is now a waiting list for the next time you visit. I've even purchased a box of equipment from you so we can continue to practice while we wait to book the next one. I'm trying to convince other departments to contact you about the 'subject specific' classes you're developing..

Warwickshire Leisure Centre Once again a fantastic week of workshops, which not only allowed the children to pick up new skills but also saw them bond together as a group and grow in confidence as the week progressed. Every child left the scheme having achieved something and quite rightly feeling proud of themselves!.

The workshops gave our students the chance to try something they have never tried before & will hopefully broadend their horizons. The tightrope seemed to go down particulary well! Please pass on our thanks to Andy who worked so hard with what could be seen as a 'difficult' group of students. .
