This was a great hands on activity to teach the concept of electrical currents. The kit was easy to use and had all the equipment that you needed.

In a very challenging year eventually giving the students the opportunity to use the kit was great. The students enjoyed all the different activities in the kit. They did find some of the circuits difficult but it was a good challenge for them. The equipment pack was a bit different to previous packs but we navigated through it.

I love this kit! It is such a fantastic way to teach electrical circuits! Doing hands on activities allows for the students to problem solve when their bulbs don't light. We enjoy the discussions, activities and creating! Thank you so much Counties Power for this exciting resource.

Hi, While I applied for this kit a while ago I did not receive it until half way through Term 4 (Just last week!) Being in an extended lockdown in Auckland and only now being back on site two days with not my normal class this will not be happening this term. Happy to return kit back or I can keep it to use next year.
