Puzzle Challenge Days open up a wide range of opportunities for both individual schools and clusters.

Here are some thoughts and feedback from people who have hosted Puzzle Challenge Days…

From Individual Schools
“The Happy Puzzle Company has played a vital part in raising the quality of learning in our school. The choice and quality of games The Happy Puzzle Company provides is outstanding. The children’s workshops were energising, the parents’ workshop awesome! Our children are now making informed, strategic decisions across the curriculum and have become purposefully and actively engaged in their learning. Peer coaches always use games to inspire their young learners and set them ever increasing challenges. I cannot imagine our curriculum without the support of The Happy Puzzle Company.”
Jane Kent, Head Teacher, Northchapel Primary School, West Sussex.

“Every single student was focused and motivated for the whole time. It was lovely to see different learning styles being catered for, so everyone has a chance to show their own learning strengths. Being hands on and tactile, the activities were a success. As a teacher, it was great to be a kid again. Thanks to The Happy Puzzle Company for a great day.”
David Tito – Nekeare, Hugh Christine Technology College, Kent.

“What wonderful fun and an incredibly effective learning experience! Every single student was ‘on task’ from start to finish and by the end it was crystal clear that they had a renewed determination to conquer challenges with their school work. Thank you for three fantastic days!”
Rosemarie Hopkin, Head Teacher, Galliard Primary School, Enfield.

From Cluster Days “It was outstanding – almost mind-blowing to see every single student achieving. The cheers and applause at the end said it all! We are absolutely certain that the children’s thinking skills and confidence have been boosted significantly!”
Kerry Witham, Gifted & Talented Strand Co-ordinator, Grimsby Excellence Cluster.

“… an engaging, exciting experience for all schools in the Zone. The puzzles actively supported our aim to involve pupils in creative learning. All schools purchased resources so that they can continue to use puzzles to challenge their students. “
Neil Pont, Aspect Action Zone, Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

“We ran ten Puzzle Challenge Days for our cluster – and without exception each one was a brilliant success! There is no doubt that
all of the students who took part have had a massive boost to their
confidence, solving the apparently impossible with a huge smile
and 100% commitment to the challenges, whilst improving their
thinking skills!”
Kathryn Mendoros, East Lancashire Cluster Co-ordinator.
