Our Reviews from Schools..
★★★★★
""We recently had a workshop with Dan Tastic Education which was all about Explorers. The children absolutely loved it and they fully embraced being explorers at break and lunch time. The session was highly engaging and lots of fun for the children. Dan Tastic Education brought in lots of resources for the children to look at and try on. This really brought the session to life for the children. Some really lovely memories were made that day. Thank you!""
