Wonderful activities and students said “this was the best day of the holiday program yet!”

The Holiday Clinic was great and all the children enjoyed it very much. We were most impressed with the fact that the children were totally absorbed for the whole time, after which they told us that it was the best day ever!

The whole experience was super, super awesome. Thanks for the professional approach. On such a busy night for the teaching staff you ran the night well, requiring no special effort from teachers but to have fun and enjoy the experience. Fantastic!

I highly recommend Proactivity for anyone looking for an active, exciting and varied sports program. I have had the team come out to run clinics on many occasions, and have always been extremely impressed with their clinics. All the staff are highly skilled in their field and they present in a professional manner. Their enthusiasm and sense of fun are contagious!

After coming from another provider who did not deliver what had been promised, it is refreshing to have a professional yet fun program working with our service.
