“Excellent tricky ideas to get the kids stretchig their learning and cooperation skills
Relevant and great ideas to link to every day farming and situations well done! Fun and inspiring. Will sent pics later. Georgie”
“This was such an awesome school kit and fit in perfectly with our term inquiry! The kids had an awesome time exploring the resources and learning about the process from grass to glass. We loved the maths and science challenges and the kids were all super engaged with the process and had lots of success. The only negative was that we weren't able to go on our farm visit because nothing was close enough to our school and then by the time it was organized it was too late into the term. Thanks for such an AWESOME experience!”
“I loved this kit! It tied in perfectly with my measurement focus this term and gave a meaningful, real life context for using the skills they had learnt. The resources were amazing and made teaching this kit so easy! The children loved learning about the system and processes and we were able to integrate into literacy as well.”
“Our class loved this kit! From the amazing maths involved, to the learning process of where our milk comes from and of course the hands on learning in the cowlympics! thanks so much for this amazing resource!”
“Hi School Kit!!!
Thank you so much for the Track the Tanker kit. My class thoroughly enjoying learning about the process of milk as well as completing the class olympics.
It was all very well explained and set out, there were no issues when having to complete any of the tasks.
The students especially enjoying learning all the different measuring skills - I think their favourite was the protractors.
We also learnt a lot about the importance of recording data correctly, have measurable activities and making things fair in order to compared.
Thank you again! We look forward to the next school kit we get involved in!

“As I knew the kit was maths based as made sure the groups had a range of math abilities and this made it a lot easier. This allowed me to see who were the leaders in the group and many children learning off each other rather than me telling them.”
“My top maths group LOVED this resource and were focused and energized throughout - they even challenged each other and had some friendly competitiveness between them”
“This is an amazing kit - I taught this in conjunction with a fabulous student teacher and we were both amazed at how engaged our students were. The learning that took place was superb - from the calculations needed for the worksheet, mapping the route taken and the introduction of angles. The students loved designing and implementing their cow olympics activities. Well done School Kit.”
