This was the first House of Science Kit that I’ve used and I am super impressed! Great teacher material / background info, easy to follow experiments and ALL resources provided! So easy to use and the discussions that the experiments prompted were invaluable!

Our Tamariki love these resources and their engagement has amazed me. The kits cover the curriculum and make it so easy to use. I’m learning so much as well. The information our Tamariki retain and pass onto their matua is a beautiful experience to witness. I so wish we had this when I was at school

This is one of the best science kits enjoyed by myself and the students, especially my year 7/8. The experiments expressed the wow! factor, they also showed high interest in the nano chem relationship to their environment. Their minds were challenged to comprehend the concept of nano technology. The akonga were highly motivated and looked forward to each lesson. I used the kit every day for the two weeks. I especially enjoyed Te Reo kupu, these kupu were instilled in the akonga learning. Looking forward to the next kit. Physics is a must for akonga in this area.

I love them, they are providing enough resources for all kids to use. The equipment is often well beyond our budget can afford and the students are engaged while working on an activity. There are some activities that our babies can do and then some which challenge the minds off ur bigger students. Thank you House of Science for providing the opportunities for our students to learn about science and for ensuring all resources are available to us as well. NGA MIHI NUI

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.
