This week coming I will look over the Brownies term table to book you in for a summer slot with the girls !

Thank you so much for a great night ! X

Dear Jo,

I just wanted to thank you for a fantastic event on Sunday. Your enthusiasm & energy were tremendous & parents & grandparents have been coming into the library since saying how much the children enjoyed meeting your animals.

Hope to work with you again in the future. 

Thank you once again

Hiya Jo,

I just wanted to email to say a massive thankyou from all of us at 4th Thundersley for your visit last week. All the kids went home talking about it for ages and they absolutely loved it!

We'll definitely be in touch again some time for another visit!

Thanks again!

Hi Jo,

Just wanted to say a huge thank you for coming to Jago and Martha's birthday party on Sunday. They had a wonderful time as did all the other kids and it was certainly a party to remember! They have all been talking about it in the playground this week and a few parents have asked for your details so I have given them the link to your website.

Thanks again, it was great to meet you and your lovely animals! Hope you enjoyed your roast Sunday night!

Best wishes,

Esther and Jon.

Hi Jo, We just wanted to say a BIG thank you from all the children and staff at Merry Hill. Every class had a fab time and learnt a lot too (most children (and staff) are still talking about the fact spiders don’t do poo’s ;-) It was a very enjoyable visit and we hope if we have a science week again we can call on you. Thank you again from all the children and staff at Merry Hill.
Hi Jo
 
I just wanted to say thank you for keeping all the children entertained at Sam’s party on Sunday.  The kids had a great time and Sam and enjoyed learning all the gross facts about the animals!  I hope you had a good journey home.
 
Many thanks

Hi Jo 
Just wanted to say a massive thank you again for today. It was fantastic and your way with the children was brilliant. They were totally engaged and learnt so much. 
Thank you

Hi Jo,
Thank you for coming into school yesterday and entertaining us all.
You were absolutely brilliant with our most complex children who are often very hard to gauge but you did a marvellous job. They certainly got some experiences to help them understand new things that live in the world beyond themselves.
It was great to see how your enthusiasm even helped some of the staff to conquer some of their fears. (It was the first time I’ve ever held a snake!!)
Look forward to seeing you again in the future.
Best Regards
Julia (Alex’s mum)
Hi Jo,
 
Hope you are well,
 
Sorry its taken me a while to get round to writing to you;
 
Just wanted to pass on a massive thank you from all of us at 2nd Ware, including the Cubs.
 
You were absolutely on the mark with the way you ran the session, holding the kids attention and focus throughout.  The children were all fascinated, especially with some of your grousome tales and stories!  Im sure these have been making the rounds down at the school playground.  Once again, let me applaud your professionalism throughout . . . We will most definatly be using JungleJo again!
 
Also note, I will be passing on your details when we have a District Leaders meeting with the highest of recommendations.
 
Thanks,

Hi Jo,
 
I just wanted to say thank you for yesterday. The children really seemed to enjoy themselves and the adults were all very complimentary. Charlotte had a fantastic time, we were a little concerned as that morning she had screamed at a woodlouse!
I am a teacher at a school in Great Missenden and have recommended to you to our year 4 teachers as one of their topics is rainforests. Would you travel as far as High Wycombe? I used to work at a special school there and I am sure they would be interested if you would travel that far.
 
Thanks once again,

Wow, what an amazing afternoon, every child at the party had an amazing time.....it was fantastic seeing such a different range of animals, there was something for everyone.
We even had kids knocking later in the day wanting to know about the "awesome party" we had had!! News travels fast....
Just wanted to say a massive thank you, you had the kids totally under control and entertained from start to finish, we could not have asked for more.

Hi Jo, we just wanted to thank you for a truly amazing party. 

We all had such a good time and will be talking about you and your pets for ages to come. What an experience. 

Jared says thank you so much Jo for such a cool party we had an awesome time. 

If you are ok can I recommend you to my friends and on Facebook as this was a truly memorable experience. 

Totally understand if you would prefer me not to mention on Facebook. 

Thanks ever so much again.
Really appreciate it.

Hi Joanne,
 
This month has been hectic and this is the first chance I have had to write to you to say thank you so much for entertaining our children on Friday 1st August 2014.
 
The children are still talking about the experience and so are the adults.  We were particularly impressed with the way you engaged all of the children and held their attention which, as you know, with children who have autism this can be very difficult at times. 
 
Every single family that attended completed our feedback forms and all said they were extremely happy with the event.
 
Thank you again and we hope to book you again next year.
 
Best wishes.

Hi I just  wanted to say a big  thank you for today, I felt  it was incredibly  informative  and  very  well  tailored to  the  age of the group, both of my children  learned  a lot  from it and my daughter  has been 'showing' her rubber insects and  snakes all afternoon using the information from  today. It always impresses me how much sinks in when education is  interactive,which your  display certainly  is! 


Many thanks  and hope to see more in the  future.

Hi,

I just wanted to thank you for all the effort you put into your visit for my daughters birthday party. The animals and your knowledge was fascinating. It was amazing and far exceeded my expectations !
One of the things I would really like to thank you for was how you made sure all the children were able to join in fully.  One of my daughters friends is deaf and sometimes isn't able to enjoy experiences such as this because entertainers either don't speak clearly, don't face her so she can lip read or are unable to sign.  It absolutely made my day to see her enjoy herself so much and even feel confident enough to ask questions and answer yours !  I think we will most definitely be asking you back again next year !

Thank you again for a lovely visit, it made my daughters first birthday party one that she will never forget.

Hello Jo.

Just a quick email to say thank you for a wonderful party with your fascinating animals. Ben and his friends loved it. 

We were really impressed with the whole show.  They say never work with children or animals but you managed both with ease. Your knowledge about the animals you brought with you and the interesting details kept the kids engaged and intertesed, especialy the poo facts which any 7 year old boy would love ! 

We were particularly liked at the little speech you gave at the beginning about the animals being your friends and the obvious care you have for the creatures in your care. It's nice to know it's not just for the money and you have a passion for the animals which genuinely comes though in your show. 

We would thoroughly recommend you to anyone looking for entertainment for a kids party and would happily have you use our review for future customers. 

All the best for the future.

Dan and Lucie Card and a happy 7 year old Ben.

Hi Jo

I just wanted to say thank you so much for Emma's party yesterday. She had a fab time and so did all her friends. Everyone has commented on  how wonderful you were and your animals are amazing. Emma has been talking about the animals all day and has asked to have a jungle Jo party for her next birthday lol.

Thanks again.

Hi Jo,

Just a quick note to say thank you for Tuesday afternoon.

The children had a fantastic time and we have completed some great follow up work from your sessions.

Jo, the other Reception teacher, was delighted to have held a snake.

The fact that had the most impact was that millipedes do not have eyes!

Thanks again and hopefully we will see you again next year.

Take care

Hi Jungle Jo, 
I have attached a letter with some thoughts from my Nursery class, after your visit last Thursday. 
They are still talking about what they learnt and applying information to other learning in the classroom. 
We had a fantastic session! Thank you for coming and sharing your expertise and enthusiasm!
 
Kind regards, 
Arlene Henshaw (Nursery teacher at Ryedene Primary School)

Dear Jo,
I am just writing to say you were one of the most popular activities for the whole week, never mind the day!
Over 90% said you were best.. needless to say we will be booking you in next year.
Thank you so much for doing the whole day, I know how exhausting that is from teaching.
Thank you again.
Best wishes
Julia Chant

Hi Jo,

I just wanted to say thank you again for coming to Daisy's party today! She absolutely loved every single minute! 

I was so proud of her for holding your tarantula and she said that it was the best thing ever!! 

You made learning about the creatures so fun and interesting and all the kids had such a great time. 

I will be sure to recommend you to other mums!

Thanks again.
