“What an amazing kit! It is perfect for my little newbies (year0/1) and contains fantastic resources! We were just going to use it to for ‘Sea week’ but ended up carrying on with a much more in-depth inquiry for the term as the children got so into it! So easy to link to all areas of the curriculum too. I could not recommend highly enough! Fantastic kit! Thank you!”

“This was a great kit which had just what we needed for a beach clean up. We tied it in with our surf trip, and the children managed to collect 5 bags of rubbish from Matapouri Beach. We even got a mention in the local newsletter as the locals were so impressed with the children's effort.”

“Our tamariki really enjoyed the Sea Cleaners School Kit learning. We visited our local Rocky Shore and learnt about all the animals in their habitat - this then lead to our learning about the importance of looking after our environment by not littering. If we don't our beautiful seas and lands will be ruined. The children felt very important when they received their gloves and very proudly proceeded to pick up rubbish in any place they could - sea, beach, park, home, bedroom! We display our proud photos.”

“Rooms 8 and 9 loved the school kit! We tailored it to suit out New Entrant children. They especially loved the rubbish collection and gloves they got to wear. Our school is set on the estuary and the beach and waterways are such important parts of our community. The children were able to connect so well to this topic and how this impacts our local community. We also integrated this topic with Sea Week.”
