Plenty of science behind it but for what you're doing creatine supplements probably don't help much. Creatine is used in the body's energy systems for very short, explosive movements. I would imagine you're more likely working within the anaerobic glycolysis energy system where the limit is lactic acid build up rather than the amount of instant power you create.
As you've just started circuit training you'll have your newb adaptations anyway whilst the creatine loads into your system, which will make comparing on/off creatine impossible to tell. I'd leave the creatine for 12 weeks or more then introduce it to see if there is a worthwhile difference.
