The kit was a fantastic resource that made it really easy to deliver this unit. I loved using it and will definitely be keen to use more kits next year.

My class really enjoyed using this kit. I opened it up and had different learning stations after teaching the activity cards. It was fantastic to hear the students’ Te Reo Maori increase.

Opawa School
The manual and video support are excellent. The organisation of the materials is wonderful and easy to rebox to return. The worksheets fitted the lessons well. Drop off and pick up were problem free. It’s a great kit and very user friendly. Thank you.

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
