Sharky

Having set up Sharky and George back in 2003 he gave up his office job in 2007 to con...cen...tra...te zzzzzzzzzzzz

Sharky's only really interested in getting back into the Guinness Book of Records for walking on his hands over more children than anyone else has in the world...ever His record stands at 20! This would join his record for the fastest 100 metres dressed as a pantomime horse (p.100 of the 2009 edition!)

Pippa

Pippa joined Sharky and George whilst spending her evenings in the musical Wicked as under study to Galinda the good.

A year on she has hung up her numerous green costumes and ginger wigs and now works full time for Sharky and George, ensuring Mission Control runs smoothly. If you ask her very very nicely she may agree to give you a sing song down the ph one... and if you have a couple of hours to spare she can also sing you the entire Wicked score start to finish!

Andy

Renowned for his tireless enthusiasm for life and work, Andy has become the 'and' in Sharky and George.

Coming from a background of theatre and sport his skills lend themselves perfectly to children's parties. Formally a coach for Charlton Athletic, Andy now manages his own theatrical entertainment company organising cool treasure hunts all over the world.

George

The 'George' of Sharky and George, studied biology at Bristol University(specifically ants and frogs!!).

After a year and a half of financial headhunting in the city for private bankers he also decided the time had come to do something more fun, Sharky and George was the obvious conclusion. George's first car was a 25 year-old London Taxi called Trevor and his love for Trevor has lead to the creation of the white 'Sharky and George' taxi that is often spotted all over London.

Hugo

Hugo is a man of many talents. If he is not entertaining at parties, he can either be found rowing for Great Britain, teaching boys to fish on the Sharky and George Summer Camps or farming in Oxfordshire.

His record for children swinging on his arms is 5 but, ever the competitor, he will be looking to beat that at the next party!

Holidays at Home

Think of a nanny but far more fun.

With all of the Sharky and George experience in Children's parties, Holidays at Home has been designed as a personalised and tailored day or week of fun and games during the holidays for small groups of children.

The sorts of things we like to include are:

• Games in the park
• Film making and editing
• Chocolate making
• Yoga
• Trips on the Thames or in our open topped taxi
• Remote controlled aeroplane flights
• Giant treasure hunts all over London

The aim is to provide something really unique and specific to the children present with minimum organisational hassle for the mums.

Healthy Mind in a Healthy Body

A booster academic revision course from highly qualified tutors with exciting games and activities run by the Sharky and George party experts. Small groups of children can sharpen up their knowledge for end of year exams with the chance to study hard and play hard.

The revision side of the course is tailored to suit children, including interactive learning, quizzes and games, exam proactive, confidence building and efficient revision technique.

The fun side of the course is something to really look forward to after each good stint of work. It's a great way to get active, keep fit, keep the body healthy, while avoiding a long day of revision indoors. The activities range from 40:40, giant treasure hunts and races, to water bomb fights, Ultimate Frisbee and film making and editing.

Holiday Camps

Sharky and George Holiday Camps are based on having small numbers of children (max 20) who are all good friends beforehand.

The camps have a real family holiday feel to them either based in the woods or on the beach, with:

• Camping
• Fire making
• Survival
• Cooking
• Classic games
• Water fights
• Treasure Hunts
• Giant inflatable hamster wheel racing
• Tug of war
• Knife skills
• Pizza making
• Fishing

...and anything else that gets everyone active and involved.

This is a fantastic way for girls and boys from 9-14 years old to get out and about learning lots of really practical skills while having an absolute blast.
