“I just wanted to say what a fantastic day we had last Thursday in school with Jon.
From 9-3 he had the children laughing and completely engrossed. He was fantastic with all of the children and they thoroughly enjoyed their day (along with the teachers and support staff!) His enthusiastic demeanour and patience with the children was lovely. It was so lovely to watch all children no matter their ability have a go and want to have a go! It was a great way to see other children shine, especially those who often struggle academically. Everyday the children are talking about their circus skills and Jon! The enjoyed it so much we even had feedback from parents saying how the children loved it so much they talked about it all night and some even added spinning plates onto their Christmas lists, which just shows how inspired the children were. Thank you again, we will definitely be having Circus Sensible back in our school!" - Katie, St Anne's Catholic Primary School, Huyton. - Circus Workshops
“Jon was brilliant and the workshop was amazing. The students really engaged with him and his energy was great! The students loved it especially the balancing feather part they are still talking about this today. All students were completely engaged and most of them showed off a skill and stood up in front of their peers which is amazing for them.” Ruth, Littlemoor Primary School, Oldham.
“Many thanks to Richie & Jamie for braving the wind and the rain for us last week. Their presence at our festival brings a smile to everyone’s faces, especially the children.” - Ed Newsom, Henleaze Christmas Festival, Bristol.
“Just to thank you for an AMAZING circus day yesterday. The children and staff had a fantastic time. Jon pitched the workshop really well and he had a great rapport with the children. The activities fully supported our IPC curriculum and our most recent circus unit. What I really liked was how every child was included regardless of ability and they had the opportunity to perform and master a circus skill. For some children this was a real confidence boost. The enjoyment and buzz around school throughout the day was inspiring. Also.. for the staff being able to dress up as clowns for the day was an added bonus! I will definitely recommend you to other schools.
Thanks again” - SS Simon and Jude CEPS, Great Lever, Bolton, Lancashire - Circus Workshops
'OMG!! What a day!! Kyle, Obby and Neil were absolutely AMAZING. We all had such a ball and I haven’t laughed that much in ages. The kids had a brilliant day, every single one of them was smiling. Your guys were such a friendly bunch and very professional. They turned up when they said they would and were brilliant with the kids all day. Thank you so, so much!!' - Fay McCombie, St Lawrence CE Primary, Napton-on-the-Hill, Warwickshire. A Day with our ‘baby’ Big Top.
'I would like to say a great big thank you to Jon, Neil and Gary for a fantastic three days. Not only did they entertain our pupils (and staff) but actively involved them in developing a range of circus skills. The performances and workshops fully supported our creative curriculum making learning fun and exciting. The positive relationships they made with all our pupils could clearly be seen on faces, so many happy, smiling, giggling, laughing ones. We have personally recommended Circus Sensible to other special schools in the borough.'

Wow! Where to start, would like to thank you for organising the visit to Pinkwell. Teachers and kids loved the whole day. No matter what the weather was like when we were in the tent we were in a whole new place.
The three guys that came were absolutely brilliant. It was so well organised and no hassle at all. One child left school saying "that was the best day of my life" i have some photos you could use, will send after easter break.
I cant wait till next year when i can book circus sensible again! Christine, Pinkwell School, Hayes, London.
"The workshops were excellent and gave a real fun, feel-good atmosphere to the event. I was concerned that with hundreds of children attending it would not be possible for them all to have a go in the short time we had allocated, but the performers brought so much equipment and dealt with the children so well that all the children had a wonderful time. Thank you!” - Daniel Sturgess, Sinai School, Brent, London. Circus Skills Workshops
The children had a wonderful day. Obby was professional at all times. He taught the different groups of children different skills and put on a show for year 5.
I would highly recommend your company to another school. Thank you again - Nicole Fontaine, George Tomlinson School, Leytonstone.
