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.

As a teacher I have found the Science kits great for exposing my students to science ideas they might not normally look at as part of our science teaching. Thank you for all your organisation resourcing and putting the kits together.

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.

Students found the kit engaging and fun, especially the eDNA. The kit is also helpful to teachers who lack the confidence to teach science – it makes it easy for teachers to teach the concepts.
