We have hosted The Happy Puzzle Company a few times now and their latest Smart
Thinkers programme took everything to the next level. The students were engaged from start to finish, and the staff were impressed by how well the students collaborated on the tasks. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending The Happy Puzzle Company to any other school.

Mind Missions was enjoyed by all children in our school. They loved the challenge aspect of their problem solving and they developed their team work skills throughout the day. It has improved the children’s willingness to take a risk and try different ways to solve a problem. A great day – thank you!

The students encounter a variety of fun, but challenging 3D hands-on puzzle tasks, which they have to complete in teams. Most challenges last for no more than a few minutes, but require each team to work together and carefully develop strategies in order to find a solution. The temptation to give up might appear from time to time, but the programme teaches the students how to persevere, put their own skills to better use as part of a team and overcome difficulties by approaching problems from different perspectives. With the advent of the new GCSE curriculum, where a stronger emphasis on problem solving is being placed, we feel this day is an ideal springboard and foundation in Key Stage 3. In addition, our pupils have fun while they learn!

I learnt that don’t just look at a problem and assume it’s hard. These puzzles will help me in Maths

“It has been just over three months since our puzzle day with you. Your workshops have without doubt made our students, from Reception to Year 6, much more resilient and they are embracing new challenges with confidence. We have engaged, determined students as a result of the Happy Puzzle day. We want you here every week!”
