I am writing on behalf of the Friends of Anlaby Primary who invited Happy’s Circus to visit our school on the 25th of June.

The circus team were incredible, from start to finish. From initial discussion right up to them arriving we had all the information we needed. They talked us through everything, sent over risk assessments and gave us ideas for pricing and marketing too.

When the team arrived they were friendly and professional, they were set up on the school site and to help the children get excited they invited each of the classes in to have a look around the tent and meet the crew. The kids had an amazing time and feedback from the headmaster was very positive.
For the event, we had two smaller one hour events rather than their usual 2hr event to make up for the restricted numbers.

The tent set up was great. The circus team seated everyone safely and efficiently. Everyone was super friendly and professional. The shows were unreal. Both different and both had each crowd totally amazed, engaged and howling with laughter! Thoroughly entertaining.

We’ve had so much feedback from parents and children to say it’s the best night they’ve had in a very very long time. Parents loved it just as much as the kids.

Once inside the tent it truly was like being somewhere else with the lights and sound effects.

Honestly it couldn’t have gone better. When the team left, they did so conscientiously, with no rubbish or mess left behind. They also spent some time supporting our local businesses too!

We can’t wait to get the team back, neither can the families who saw them.

Thank you so much Happy’s Circus for giving our community a truly unforgettable experience.

Kind Regards

Wonderful team and a pleasure deal with, thank you!

“I just wanted to write to say a really BIG thank you for making our event on Saturday such a success! Rebecca and the office team did an excellent job of holding my hand through the build-up, calling each month and providing me with top tips and next steps. This was really helpful!

On the day, Shaun, Pippa and their amazing team were incredible. They were so calm and again gave great advice to ensure that the event ran smoothly and everyone enjoyed themselves. The sun shone and families from over Hitchin joined us to mark our 50^th anniversary.

The Big Top was packed with smiling faces and we were so pleased with the comments we received from families as they left.

Thank you for all of your support and guidance and for putting Mary Exton on the map for a day!

The circus was amazing and we raised lots of money with the tickets and stalls. Your team were great too!

Thanks for all your support and hopefully we will be arranging another visit to school in the future.

Henry’s doing well – lots of physio ahead but all worthwhile.

Thank you once again for a superb fundraising event.

I would certainly give you my highest recommendation

Best wishes

Our PTA has booked Happy’s Circus three times and we’ve always been delighted with their service. The booking process was very straightforward: the office staff were always ready to answer our questions and help us to tailor the event to our individual needs. Communication from Happy’s was excellent, with regular emails from the fundraising team. They provide us with a brilliant information service with everything you need to know to put on the event, including ideas for fundraising, marketing, site layout, brochures, and so much more.

The focus is definitely on helping schools make their event a fundraising success.

On the day, the circus arrived and set up quickly and efficiently, leaving the members of the PTA to concentrate on food and fundraising stalls.

The circus staff were professional and courteous throughout, and got on with the set-up quickly and efficiently.

The show itself is always incredibly impressive – The Happy’s Circus team are true professionals, and everyone was amazed by the expertise of the performers. The show is genuinely entertaining for both children and adults.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Happy’s Circus to other schools.

“Happy’s Circus visited our school for the second time on Wednesday, after first visiting us three years ago and WOW, what an unforgettable event! The feedback from parents has been absolutely incredible, and everyone is still buzzing with excitement!

From the moment the Big Top started going up, there was such a magical atmosphere around school. Watching the set-up and pack-up was amazing in itself, and the entire Happy’s Circus team were fantastic throughout. Nothing was too much trouble, every question was answered, and they made the whole experience feel so special from start to finish.

A huge special mention has to go to Rebecca, who has been absolutely brilliant from the moment we booked. I genuinely feel like I know her personally after all our conversations! She was supportive, responsive, helpful and reassuring every step of the way. The promotional materials, communication and support provided made organising such a huge event feel so much easier.

Not only did the children and families have the most amazing evening, but as a PTFA, we are absolutely thrilled to have raised over £4,000 in profit for our school community!

The children are already asking when Happy’s Circus can come back again… and honestly, so are we!

Thank you so much, Happy’s Circus, for bringing so much joy, laughter and magic to our school community”

I would just like to say a massive thank you for yesterday! The circus was amazing and so much more than we expected.The whole evening was perfect, the atmosphere was amazing and the circus is still the main topic of conversation for parents and children, who have told us it’s the best thing they have ever attended and that the school have held.When we booked you 18 moths ago we were all very nervous about how it would work and if we could make it successful, with a lot of hard work and a good team with us and the support for you, it was a huge success. You have all been so helpful, friendly, and given great advice, The team were great in giving us ideas for setting out our stalls to work together.We are not a massive school but with the support from you, and local businesses we estimate we have raise approx £5000 which is phenomenal. We will be booking you again!!

Dear Happy Circus Team,

Happy Circus – Russell Lower School

Following an absolutely superb show on Wednesday, please find below a testimonial

Thank you so much to the staff of Happy Circus who visited us for the first time this year! From the initial correspondence to seeing them off site the day after our show the Happy Circus team were an absolute pleasure to work with.

The processes that Happy’s have in place to ensure your event runs smoothly is absolutely fantastic and removes any stresses of the organiser. With the supporting information and details provided in the support pack we were able to sell out our first performance. The literature issued is clear and provides excellent guidelines for planning a successful event.

The show itself was enjoyed by all who attended, the children were absolutely buzzing with excitement after watching the Big top being set up in the day to being able to sit in the show and watch the wonderful performances by all involved. The noise from the children certainly raised the roof and the parents all commented to say how good the performance was and how nice it was to have something different at the school.

The show was such a success for us that we have planned a returning visit for a two day event to our school in 2018.

It has been a pleasure working with the Happy’s team and we cannot wait to have you back in the future.

Could you please pass on our thanks to pip, Ross and the happy circus crew for providing such a wonderful event at Bromham primary school last Wednesday. We were thoroughly impressed the fact that they arrived and we did not even realize they were there, the set up and pack down was amazing. People are already asking when we are doing it again.

Many thanks
