Our Purpose
Empowering Teachers
We develop relevant, comprehensive resource kits with all the materials needed to carry out engaging science lessons. The bilingual kits are delivered to schools using a subscription based library system.
Our Vision
Raising Scientific Literacy
We aim to see every child in New Zealand become scientifically literate. This means they have a clear understanding of science concepts and processes encountered in their daily lives. Improving scientific literacy will have a huge economic and social benefit to New Zealand.
Critical Thinking Skills
Science teaches us how to gather and interpret information, and to make informed decisions. A key skill in light of the prolific ‘fake news’ on all media platforms.
Economic Prosperity
Our future economy depends on advancements in clean technology, automation and digital innovation. A scientifically literate workforce will have the skills to embrace this future of work.
Health & Wellbeing
Science enables us as individuals to make informed decisions about diet, exercise and medical treatments. These choices directly impact our personal health and wellbeing and that of our families.
Our Values
Fostering Curiosity
Making It Count
We are here to make a positive difference in the lives of our children by helping teachers deliver great science lessons.
Empowering People
We create an environment where people can think big, have fun and contribute in a safe and inclusive way.
Being Curious
We ask questions and challenge the status quo in order to create a better tomorrow.
This was such a great kit! Our students loved it, the activities were easy to teach, there were clear next steps for new learning and we all had so much fun. Thank you very much!

We thought this was an outstanding resource. The kids had a fantastic time predicting and experimenting. As a teacher I have always shied away from electronics but after this I am much more confident. So my greatest appreciation for this kit!

Great resource, but due to time restraints we did not get time to complete all the activities. I thoroughly enjoy using Te Reo intergrated with my students. The kupu Putaiao are brilliant, some are new to me, even though I am fluent, some of the new scientific words are unknown. Well done congratulations to the Reo interpreters

This kit was amazing! The students particularly loved the activity of investigating the white powder – it was the most engaging activity. All the students enjoyed it and it made them feel like forensic scientists. The teacher manual was also super helpful. I liked that there were many student packs available as well as the binded booklets (I gave out one per group).

Absolutely engaging and easy to use. Loved the laminated cards with instructions on Able to share plans with release teacher and LA so easily. The best bit was the in-depth science knowledge explained in the resources which is often lacking in science resources where you can extend those more divergent learners.
