Audience Feedback
“Nearly a week on and our team is still buzzing from the fabulous day that was created by having Happy’s Circus visit our School.
The support offered from day one of booking, has been superb! Emma in particular has been my main contact, and she was professional, friendly and super helpful throughout.
The set up, the show and the take down of the Big top by the team worked like a well oiled machine. The kids absolutely loved the show.
We are super thankful that Shaun, Pippa and rest of the team came to Cobham PS. The day raised a huge amount of funds for us! Thank you a thousand times”

Hi Happy’s Circus
I wanted to thank you all at Happy’s Circus for a fabulous show on Sunday!
The families at MMK School had the most fantastic afternoon celebrating the school’s 60th Anniversary. The children were mesmerised by all of the talented performers and especially loved meeting Bobbo the clown. Miss Pippa was an excellent ringmaster and we thank her especially for making it so special.
The whole experience was incredibly professional and well organised and (apart from the weather!) it all went to plan, exceeding all of our expectations.I thought I’d share some of the lovely feedback we received from teachers and families:
“What an amazing afternoon. It was beyond slick, so well thought out and so much fun!!!!”
“Thanks so much for organising the circus today. It was absolutely fantastic. My family really enjoyed it and so did I.”
“It was lovely to see so many MMK staff and children with their families having such a great time”
Thank you once again for helping us to create a wonderful memory for the children and we’ll definitely be recommending Happy’s Circus to other schools.
Best wishes

“My granddaughter (aged 9) and I encountered Happy’s Circus at Mead Open Farm. What an experience! We saw the show not once, but twice. Excellent performances by all the cast. We were enthralled. My heart was in my mouth a few times with the pole and aerial acts. Plus would the guy catch the Diablos from such great heights. Of course he did!! A big THANK YOU to everyone involved”

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.

Hi Rebecca
Thanks for your call earlier.
The Circus was amazing last night and thoroughly enjoyed by all at Hawley Primary. Right from the start the booking process was easy and even though this was your third visit to us, the support calls and information were really helpful. We worked hard, launching the event with a circus skills day months before, and kept on promoting ticket sales so that we were virtually sold out.The team on the day was amazing and unbelievably organised! It all went smoothly and we ended up raising £5500 in profit from ticket sale, raffle and stallsLook forward to seeing you again in a couple of years!

Wow what a treat! Happy’s Circus came to our school yesterday and we had an amazing time! We booked it back in 2019 for the summer of 2020 but due to Covid it obviously had to be moved. The team have been so helpful throughout. The help and support we got to make this a successful event was excellent from start to finish. On the day Pippa, Sean and their team were fantastic. The 2 shows were out of this world and everyone had a brilliant time! So many people have told me how good it was and how much they enjoyed it! They all loved Billy the Clown and all the amazing acrobats. We would definitely have Happy’s Circus visit us again and we would recommend it to other schools too

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

“I wanted to say what a fantastic evening we had at the circus last night!
Shaun and the rest of the crew were brilliant form start to finish.
We have had so many parents come up to us to thank us for arranging the show and judging by the squealing and laughing, everyone had a great time. There were lots of happy faces at the end of the night and I believe ‘Mr Slinky’ was a firm favourite.
Please pass on my thanks to the team and hope they have a safe onwards journey.”

Just wanted to say a massive thank you again for yesterday everyone had such a brilliant time and all I am hearing today is people talking about it. Yourselves and the team yesterday have been brilliant from day one helping so I personally can’t thank you enough. Even my son who has been there with me all weekend setting up said please can you send them a message mom to say how good it was.
So much so that I am looking to book again, it is our 85th year as a school in 2023 and was looking at booking yourselves on Saturday 15th July 2023, is this possible? As it is such a big event for the school I would like it to be much bigger than yesterday and as well as yourselves get a lot more people involved with more stalls etc.
How do I go about booking this please?
Thanks

“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 50th 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!
