Testimonials

"What other word could we use to describe Chris other than fantastic! He was outstanding—a truly dynamic and inspiring facilitator. He was incredibly engaging, using age-appropriate activities across KS2 to help the children understand the importance of kindness and safety both online and in real-life situations. He brought the learning to life by getting the children involved in role-play scenarios, and even encouraged the teachers to join in, which the children absolutely loved."

"We have had the pleasure of Captain Fantastic visiting us at Coteford Infant School several times. Each session has been well organised and thought out meeting the needs of our pupils. The sessions are fun and engaging and cover multiple areas of the curriculum, from mental health and wellbeing to Science and seasonal events. The children are amazed by the experiments and always eager to participate and learn new things. The presenters are enthusiastic and passionate about what they do. Both pupils and staff enjoy getting involved, joining in with the singing and dancing. Parents also comment that their children go home after a Captain Fantastic session excitedly sharing the things they have learnt. Big thank you to Captain fantastic Team!"

"We had Captain Fantastic come to our school, which was really exciting to see. We took part in some science activities and carried out a few experiments, and we also spent time focusing on well-being, which was absolutely fantastic. All of the children had a wonderful time, and I would definitely recommend this experience to others."
