We are so confident that you’ll love this new package that we are able to offer a FULL GUARANTEE.
If you don’t like it or your children aren’t impressed – you get a full refund (apart from transport costs).

Logistics:
1          After booking, you’ll receive a phone call to discuss your requirements and any technical requirements will be outlined during the phone call.

2          On the day, Craig will arrive with his bags and boxes of instruments and props. Please ensure as much as possible a clear parking space, preferably close to the room where the workshop / performance will take place.
 
3          It’s important that the children will have had access to sips of drinking water before and after the workshop / performance. If you’d like them to drink water during the workshop, please ensure all water – please no juice or fizzy drinks – is in a secure bottle and placed at the sides of the room.

4          Workshops are highly interactive and it’s important that there are enough adults present to not only supervise and participate but also to absorb the methods and information through the experience and explanations which arise.

5          A CD / Manual will be given to the teacher as part of the booking and it will contain songs and activities from the workshop to enable the work to continue and be developed into the future if wished.

6          You will be invoiced after the workshop either on the day or by post or email.
