Thinking of a church hall bouncy castle party for my 6 year old this time ,(invite the whole class whoever turns up turns up).
Questions I have are is 3 hour hall hire doable
Do I get bouncy castle to arrive as soon as we go in then half hour after party finished?
Can't get my head round the logistics.

Seems fine.
i would be clear if you are doing food or not on an invite, most people seem to expect some snacks - we usually just did watermelon chopped up and loads of crisps and squash. So you want to set up some tables where they can go to get a drink/food if not bouncing. You may also want a table with some easy (non needing parental supervision) crafts for same person - some kids need to not be in the thick of the noise/sweat all the time so good to have a space to go.
Enjoy and get some wine in for after!

Also get either multiple bouncy castles/slides or a huge obstacle one or other entertainment. If 20+ kids come there won’t be enough to entertain them with just one standard bouncy castle as can only have a few kids on at a time. Accidents happen when too many kids pile on at a time. We did two inflatables for 15 kids and that worked well, we would have needed more for more kids.

So you would allow kids to fill up on crisps and juice, then send them on to a bouncy castle?!
OP, best be ready with a Vomit Clear Up Kit as well 😆
