Outstanding Experience with Happy’s Circus!
As the Chair of the Hollyfast PTFA, I wanted to share our fantastic experience with Happy’s Circus. As a PTFA, we had the ambitious idea of bringing a circus to our school, despite never having organised anything on this scale before.
From our very first enquiry, the support we received was exceptional. Emma guided us through every stage of the planning process, providing regular communication, helpful advice, and great ideas to help us maximise fundraising opportunities. We always felt fully supported and nothing was ever too much trouble.
On arrival, the entire team were professional, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. We had some logistical challenges with the site, involving two playgrounds and a field, but the team handled everything brilliantly. Sean, the show manager, was particularly helpful, professional, and a pleasure to work with.
Watching the Big Top go up was amazing, and the whole team worked efficiently and safely. Throughout the event, it genuinely felt like we were one team working together to make the evening a success.
We deliberately kept our ticket prices affordable to ensure the event was accessible to all families, and alongside our refreshments and tuck shop, we were delighted to raise just under £3,500 for our school. These funds will go directly back into enriching the experiences and opportunities available to our pupils and family’s
The performance itself was absolutely fantastic. Every act was entertaining, professional, and thoroughly enjoyed by children and adults alike. The whole show was extremely well organised and delivered to a very high standard.
Following our post-event meeting, we are already discussing bringing Happy’s Circus back to our school, possibly for two nights next time.
A huge thank you to everyone at Happy’s Circus. We absolutely loved working with you and would highly recommend you to any school or organisation looking for a memorable fundraising event.
