I just wanted to write to say ‘thank you’ for an amazing two days at Loose Primary School. It has been a hugely successful event with everyone buzzing from it all. You guys in the office have been a dream to work with and we really appreciate how you worked with us and met our school’s demands. Pip and Ross and the rest of Red Team were amazing. A pleasure to work with, helpful and respectful of our school and gave the children and families a simply wonderful experience.
Thank you all.
We enjoyed the circus a lot! It was really incredible to watch the talented performers.
The staff was so professional in setting up and leaving the event. We have had a lot of positive feedback from children and parents alike and it was clear to see on the day, that everyone had a lot of fun. We made over £2000 in profit and cannot wait to have you back again!
What can we say, except… wow, wow, wow!
Happy’s Circus came to HTL Primary school in Sidcup yesterday, and what an amazing day it was!
From start to finish, the communication with the Happy’s Circus team was extremely detailed from the date of booking- up until the day itself, with regular updates, information, ticket selling advice, classroom games and activities to rouse excitement amongst the children, videos to watch in assembly, and around the clock support in running the event.Yesterday, the wonderful Pippa and Shaun arrived with the Circus convoy in procession, and what an exciting sight it was!
The hardworking staff set up the Big Top in a staggeringly fast time, and the guys and girls worked as a safe, seamless and very strong team! It was hugely impressive!When the gates opened for the event to begin, the children were ecstatic at the sight before them on their school field! The circus staff proceeded to delight children outside the Big Top, and the smell of popcorn and candy-floss filled the air.Then it was show time!All of the performers were out of this world! Exceptionally talented, thrilling to watch, funny, and kept us spellbound throughout the entire show- Pippa, the wonderful ringmaster, kept the audience clapping and cheering and engaged, and the lovely clown had us laughing throughout! The aerial acts were breathtaking and mesmerising.When the show sadly came to an end, again the Big Top was safely dismantled in an almost unbelievable speed and the precision of a well oiled machine- the staff worked hard in the heat together, and after no time at all the field was cleared away.Overnight the staff stayed on our school field and left the site immaculately clean and tidy-
Like they’d never been there at all!If you are unsure as to whether to book in Happy’s for your next PTA event, don’t be!
You will not regret doing so. It is a wonderful PTA profit maker, especially if you read and listen to all of Happy’s invaluable advice and assistance, which really helps make your event stress free. We raised £5200 profit after the Event Fee had been paid.The staff are genuinely the most lovely, polite and hardworking team, and it was a pleasure to have them visit our school. From the management, the acts, those working behind the scenes and the lovely drivers and builders!
We can’t wait to book them again.Thank you Pippa, Shaun and the whole team at Happy’s Circus!
We hope you have a well earned rest after such a busy weekend.
With thanks,
“We had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Happy’s Circus. From start to finish, the team were professional, friendly and incredibly well-organised. The pre-event communication was excellent, with helpful emails and calls that made the planning process smooth and stress-free.
On the day itself, Shaun and the team were brilliant. They arrived and departed exactly as scheduled, and the set-up and dismantling of the Big Top was carried out with military-style precision — it was genuinely impressive to watch! Despite their busy schedule, Shaun kindly took the time to hold some impromptu Q&A sessions with our children, which created so much extra excitement around the event and meant a great deal to us as a school.
The show itself was fantastic — all the performers were excellent, and it was a real treat to see such a talented, high-energy cast entertain families of all ages. The children especially loved getting sprayed with water at the end — a brilliant moment that had everyone laughing! It was a true family event and created memories we’ll be talking about for a long time.
Thanks to the evening’s success, we were able to raise over £2,500 profit for our school — especially pleasing given our short selling window and limited stalls (just food, drinks and a raffle).
We’d definitely look to welcome Happy’s Circus back again in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to other schools and organisations looking for a fun, professional and memorable event.
A huge thank you to Shaun, Pippa, Rebecca and the whole team for making it such a wonderful experience!”
Massive thank you to Ross, Pop and the Happy’s Circus team on Sunday.
The Circus show was absolutely amazing – the right balance of acts and comedy. So much crammed into the performances – Ross and Pip were very funny and got funnier during the show. Our kids absolutely loved it!!
So many fantastic and positive comments from parents afterwards as well as the school so a big well done and thank you again.
I suspect that the HSA/School would love to have you back in the future.
Hi Rebecca
We first made contact just before Christmas and 7 months later we hosted an amazing end-of-school-year celebration! Our school uses the Basingstoke and North Hants Cricket Club as our sports field and this is where we hosted Happy’s Circus.
The event was a great success, the kids absolutely loved it and we had lots of positive feedback. It was the perfect end to the school year. We combined it with the school summer fair so the children came after school on the last day to the playing field and had fun with the stalls and activities as part of the fair before going to the circus.
We wanted the day to not just be about fundraising and we certainly created a day full of fun and memories.
The pre-event support was super useful in keeping us on track and helping us do what needed to be done in a timely manner. I didn’t see the show myself but my kids tell me the clowns and acrobats were especially entertaining.
Thank you for helping us make this happen, We sold 595 tickets and raised £2960!
Kind Regards
“We are so immensely happy with our experience with Happy’s Circus. My contact Rebecca could not have been more helpful, with updates along the way, useful materials to boost interest in ticket sales and always happy to answer any questions we had.
The circus were so professional on arrival and set up, getting the excitement going with the big top being up for our fete beforehand.
Thanks to the Circus, programme, sponsorship and fete we raised over £7300 in profit!
Everyone was amazed at the acts and how they could perform such a great show in the school field! The children loved Mr Slinky, giggled and screamed at Steve the clown and ring mistress Pippa’s antics and everyone was in awe of the acrobatic acts.
The day couldn’t have gone any better!”
