The kit was really well-resourced. Our committe was not big enough to work through a volunteer project in the term we received it. Instructions of what was inside the box and the order to use them would have been helpful We will look to use the Student -self assessment of skills in 2024 when we decide on a project. At the moment it could be a 'FoodBank Drive" The 'Choose your Project Sheet' is clear and easy to see working. Our issue is school Safety Management Procedures. When we think big, and present to our Leadership team, we have been rejected. We are hoping to get two SVA Ambassadors this term so we can talk them through the resource to lead a project.

We used the kit to inspire the pupils in or school to think about the amount of food waste we produce at our school and how we can lessen the waste and save not only money but resources.

This was a well thought out and presented kit but was not suitable for my class through no fault of the pack or providers. It would be amazing for a mainstream class with responsive learners.

It had some great ideas to start student's thinking about volunteer work but our learning took us in a different direction and we didn't end up using most of the resources provided by the pack. Sometimes when the students direct their learning we just have to follow their lead :)
