Our Reviews from Schools..

★★★★★
"We have had Prime VR in twice and each time it has been excellent. Matt was extremely helpful in setting up the day, communicated wonderfully and adapted to last minute changes. The children were enthralled and really helped to set up our topics. We look forward to having him back in the spring."
