We absolutly loved using the Space Out Science Kit. The students really enjoyed the activities and learning opportunities available. As the teacher, I found it easy to follow through the lessons/activities and thought the kit was well resourced and set up – it was simple and fun!

Te Uku School
It was fantastic. We had a blast. We found lots of other experiments etc that we could do with or about water online. The children were really enthusiastic and interested in what was happening. There was a lot of science and questionning that took place in our classroom. We are very lucky to have been able to use it.
