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

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.

They are fabulous. Having all of the resources at hand is so helpful. I can usually adapt the activities to suit the year 1’s. I really appreciate the Science Capabilities as the key focus so that even if a concept is too complex at certain levels for the year 1’s we still know that the capabilities are being well consolidated.

My Year 2/3 children really engaged with this kit. They loved the hands on nature of it, and enjoyed exploring the scientific concepts in an open-ended way. They really loved the Newton’s Cradle. Thank you for such an amazing quality kit of resources!
