The House of Science PLD has completely changed my teaching and how our tamariki view science. Having a facilitator not only come in and work on a whole school approach but also give tips on how to best implement the HoS kits into our classroom setting has been extremely valuable. Our facilitator has in-depth knowledge of all science capabilities and the NZ curriculum and how these can realistically look in a classroom and school setting. Not only have we seen fantastic growth in science knowledge but all areas of the curriculum especially vocabulary through the fun hands-on activities provided to us each fortnight in our HoS kits. Signing up to House of Science has been one of the best things we have done as a small rural school, and I encourage anyone else thinking of joining to do so!
