Lucas Jet
Live Inspiration for your pupils
Circus skills workshops for schools are our speciality, booked now more than ever because of the popularity of the circus topic within primary schools.
​
What better way to kick off your topic than with an inspirational live circus show in your assembly!
​
Not to toot my own horn, I know our circus days are the bee's knees but don't take my word for it...

'the best assembly you'll ever have'
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
“So glad I booked Lucas for our Arts Week! You’ve been great to coordinate plans with and extremely accommodating with everything I’ve asked! Your workshops were perfect for the ages of the children and you and Johnny were an absolute delight in your show finale!
Not sure where you find your energy from! The time and patience you have with every child is heartwarming! The children adored your visit and the added extras of performing when the children walked into school in the morning will have made long lasting happy memories. Thank you Lucas and Johnny! You made our Arts Week extra special and just perfect!.”
— Jo Kinch, Watchfield Primary School.
What happens in a Lucas Jet School Day?

Straight after morning register is usually when we do a whole school assembly show. This is a great scene setter for the day. After they see the show, the pupils will be completely inspired and super focussed for the rest of the day.
From here, the timetable is quite flexible. I tend to advise 45 minute long workshop sessions with each year group, the ideal group sizes to work with is no more than 35 pupils. Though if I know in advance and you have the space I can work with 2 classes at once if necessary.
Again this is flexible depending on how many sessions we are trying to fit in. In general my circus skills sessions include; peacock feather balancing, plate spinning, flower sticks, diabolo, juggling.
Workshops are adapted for the different year groups.

Me
I'm 4 x British Unicycle Champion and present live skills that a lot of children just won't have seen in real life. It's powerful stuff.
Leon&The
Place Between
A fantastic book that I am often asked to bring to life through my magical circus performance. Let's give the pupils something to write about.
Engage
all
Every school has the pupils that struggle to engage with learning or mainstream sport. Circus workshops can often be a breakthrough for many pupils as it uses a different part of the brain.

Lucas & Jony

For slightly larger schools or an extra special treat you might want to put on a mega show. Some of the showstopping stunts that I can do with Jony just aren't possible solo. It also means we can run two sessions simultaneously.
