The kit was fantastic, a great resource to start classroom discussion. Many of the resource were displayed on the classroom walls and was a great learning tool for students, to not only connect with the classmates but to also see the wider community through a different perspective. It was a great value

Great kit, students loved the booklets that came with the box. The counters and box where used regularly and students appreciated that they could do this without others seeing or heading how they felt.

The resources are great language starters and instigated good oral discussions for my students.

It's a great concept and I liked the parent letter. The token check in system was useful. I found the wall display wasn't used by my students as it was too obvious to grab a red or orange card so shifted them to a more discreet area. Still weren't used there either. I wonder if a digital place for students to click into the different cards would work?

This kit was amazing! We had so much learning around the Science of baking and chemical reactions. Kids gave it 10 out of 10 and we still talk about it! Thanks to all involved with its creation.

This is such a fantastic kit, the kids really enjoyed all the activities. The New Entrants enjoyed working together to make the different parts. It was such a great opportunity to learn more especially to all the ESOL learners in my class. We also used some of the parts during our writing sessions - such a great kit!

Kids loved this kit and it linked perfectly with our kaitiakitanga topic. The kids were excited to do regular litter picks around the school and decided to create their own videos and posters to share their learning with others.

The Kit looks fantastic, however I had seen a review saying that it was a bilingual resource and was very keen to use it in a kura kaupapa full immersion setting. Unfortunatly it is all in English and will take a lot of translating. The letter is the only resource offered in te reo and is ironically the one resource which might have been needed in both English and te reo Māori had this resource been in te reo. I would love to see resources like this offered in te reo Māori in the future. Supplying some of the doccuments in editible formats would be helpful. Or removing the language from some of the resources so they are just visual diagrams etc which can then be spoken to by the teachers in any language. Hopefully this feedback is helpful, there are so many schools/kura who would love to see more truely bilingual resources or specific reo Māori resources for more equitable access to great learning resources!

Was easy to use for my class (Yr5/6). Website was clear for all, although some needed extra help with the reading. The artifacts were a cool touch, but couldn't see which ones belonged to which to match up with the website (maybe it was user error?) Would definitely use again!

There is a huge amount of learning within these kits. The children and I have selected a few to really delve into. The little ignighter objects really hooked the kids. A great way to explore NZ history in a fun, interactive way that stimulated logs of discussions.

We are still working on the rest of the SchoolKit as it does take time to go through all the postcards. Students were intrigued of the various artefact duplicates in the kit. We used it to link to our migration topics (useful not only for Y5 and 6, but also our buddy class Y7 and 8)

Thank you, the children had great discussions and could relate some artifacts with similar ones they had at home. We shared our learning with the school community at a celebration of learning evening. Parents were well impressed with the children's mini PA they had made with sticks and lego.

We were using this kit in conjunction with a Mindfulness series of lessons and a digital daily check in system. Consequently, we did not use all the areas. If we had not already had these other resources in play the indicator board would have been extremely helpful for students to show us how they were feeling at the end of each lunchtime.

I loved making vegetable cakes. The maths in this: learning to use scales and then adapting the original recipe to add in 80 g of vegies was genius. The kids were delighted with the trials and sharing their creations. Thanks so much. I would repeat this unit every 2 years because we had so much fun. It was great to hear how many students baked over the weekend after our bake day. In the future, I would ask kids to bring in ingredients and definitely ask for parent help. Great unit for year 5/6

This was such an amazing kit. We loved learning about the ocean and how our actions can either be a positive or a negative for the environment. We had an amazing day down at the beach picking up rubbish and exploring our local areas.

The ākonga truly embraced the opportunity to become kaitiaki. They planted, cared for and shared their crops from their Little Garden. The entire kura supported our NE/Y1 class in their efforts. Such a special way to bond with their older "buddy class".
