Scrooge: A Circus Christmas Carol 20222022 Christmas Show: St Peter's School Hall was transformed into a theatre for this spectacular show with all students in Katy Kartwheel's Circus School. We took the theme of Scrooge and adapted it into a unique show with a storyline that wove in current issues of refugees, war, friendship and the Christmas story.
Hundreds of pounds were donated to Wycombe Refugee Partnership through show profits and guest donations. Ukrainian children fleeing the war are offered free scholarship places whilst resident in the UK |

The Snow QueenKK Circus School (Marlow) and Berzerk (Reading) joined forces - KK's aerial silk teens performed during the touching theatrical show in Woodley. Aerial skills are perfect for your child if they are already into gymnastics, dancing, trampolining or another sport and show a keen interest in aerial classes. Gymnasts have the upper body strength and flexibility already present that makes aerial a lot easier. However, Katy is always astonished at how quickly her students pick up the skills -whatever their sporting background. Students do come from near and far, as aerial classes are few and far between. Students have come from Marlow, Wycombe, Woodley, Reading, Oxford, Beaconsfield, Windsor, Slough, West London.
