“The postcards, artefacts and website were a real hit with the students, allowing them to touch, feel and engage more with their tasks. The 3 different stories and levels of work were awesome for catering to the needs of the students. As always another amazing resource that makes teachers' lives easier and the students get authentic knowledge that has been well researched.”

“It has been amazing for our NZ History unit with our year 7s. We started with National History, before moving onto local, so this was an awesome kit. We really used the something happened here website.”
