“Halswell School, Te Kura o te Tauawa closely identifies with awa-'Te Tau-o-awa-a-Maka' (Nottingham Stream) and Huritini (Halswell River), so using the 'Rasterbator' giant jigsaw mapping tool helped our tamariki make connection between our local taonga waterways and the causes of effects of sea pollution. We connected this School Kit to 'Plastic Free July' and will have an awa clean-up in late July. The sourced TED-Ed videos were very informative! Nga mihi nui, thank you so much!”

“We loved having the equipment to use to clean up the beach. It added importance to the task and the children took it very seriously. They loved exploring the rubbish afterwards and categorizing it, and commenting on reasons why it would be on the beach.”

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them (holiday period)
Which kit components were the most impactful and why? -
How many bags of rubbish did your class collect? We used some of the school wheelie bins for some of the collection, bags for the rest.
How has this kit impacted your class culture toward whenua ora (land wellness) and sustainability? Raised awareness of what we use goes to the sea, although I have noticed they still litter around the school, so maybe don't see the connection.
What is the legacy this kit will leave behind on your learners? Hopefully more aware of what type and amount of our 0ollutuon goes into the sea and its effects on sea creatures and plants

“A subgroup fo children carried out a beach cleanup as part of our inquiry: Cirizenship - Caring for our marine environment. The students went snorkeling on 2 different days in a Marine reserve and a non protected area. They contrasted what they saw in both places. A group used cleanup kit resources to clean up a third area of local (non protected) beach. They made some generalisations about the types of rubbish they found. They made a piece of art with selected pieces of rubbish and presented their work to the syndicate. For part of the Matariki celebrations, the senior syndicate also did a cleanup around school grounds (but needed extra gloves etc, about 180 students).”

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them We did a beach clean up and students were amazed at how much of our rubbish makes it onto the beaches and into the oceans. They were interested in bringing the rubbish back to school so we could weigh it.
Which kit components were the most impactful and why? The gloves were great and the posters linked in beautifully with everything we were learning about.
How many bags of rubbish did your class collect? We split into 8 groups and each group was encouraged to get a full black rubbish bag. We ended up with almost 15 bags.
How has this kit impacted your class culture toward whenua ora (land wellness) and sustainability? They have shown great interest to learn more about our oceans and the impact our rubbish has on deeper aspects, such as coral reeves. We ended up navigating towards that.
What is the legacy this kit will leave behind on your learners? We have so many photos, we also had parents come in to take part in our clean up. Many of our students have started showing interest to find ways to reduce our garbage at school. We often get comments like "we can't have this go into the oceans".
