There was a push from students to get other staff on board but this was quite difficult given the time of year and busyness of our school. We didn't get as many as we initially hoped for but sti

“The kit looked amazing and would have supported me well to walk the length of NZ. However I have been unable to bring it into our very busy school year.”

“This was an excellent kit and the students loved the pit stops along the way and learning about them. For many it inspired their curiosity to find out more about the small towns in NZ and for some they were able to make connections to marathons and distances travelled. Such an amazing kit that could be used in a vast number of ways.”

In what ways did this kit encourage your class to engage in community collaboration? We could have done this differently by involving our families, and that would have had a wider community impact. In the end we decided to promote it across the classes, and involve them in the walk instead. We also invited some parents (during school time

“We decided to take this on as an exercise to prepare for camp for our whole syndicate (90 kids). Our class worked on the first part of the challenge (measuring our steps, working out the length of NZ in km and then converting to steps). Students really enjoyed this part, and the maths proved really interesting and challenging. We then planned a bush walk where the other students could join us (during school hours). As we all walked the same walk (1.5 hour hill climb) we used my fit bit to work out how many steps we did for that day, then multiplied that by 90 people (that was how many students and teachers walked).”
