“This was a great way to get students talking about giving back to the community and different things people might need. They were super engaged when we talked about the SVA and the Christchurch earthquakes, this was highly motivating. Our final project was hindered by Covid but students still got involved in raising money for Starship. As it was a Y1-2 class students did need extra guidance and support with the project management side of the kit”
