- 5/5 from Poppy Wakefield, attended Oct 2022: They didn't have the big pumpkins due to a supply issue which was a little sad. However, they made up for it with plenty of spooky things to choose from, cats, coffins, pumpkins. Was all explained very well, plenty of colours and gems etc to choose from and the lovely lady went round and helped all the children.

- 4/5 from Emily Winstone, attended Oct 2022: Wonderful teacher- very kind and helpful with the children. Lots of resources - and sweets- however due to a problem with deliveries we had to decorate a different item which was disappointing.
- 3/5 from Shirley Marshall, attended Oct 2022: I felt for Julia, who was very kind and did her best to compensate, but she did not have enough resources for the children as the delivery had not arrived. Fortunately my granddaughter was happy enough with the smaller cats and pumpkins and Julia really tried to make it up by giving my granddaughter some extra bits to complete her work at home. Thank you Julia.
