CHILDREN rolled up to enjoy the fun of the circus and develop their skills at the same time.

Bolton School’s infants took part in a day of circusology workshops as they developed their balance, perseverance and patience whilst learning a range of exciting circus skills.

The circusology day began with a demonstration of a variety of circus skills from the workshop leader.

The children were said to be transfixed as they watched him perform tricks on his unicycle around the hall.

By the time he had finished, pupils in all year groups couldn’t wait to have a go at some of the skills for themselves.
