Our Purpose
Empowering Teachers
We develop relevant, comprehensive resource kits with all the materials needed to carry out engaging science lessons. The bilingual kits are delivered to schools using a subscription based library system.
Our Vision
Raising Scientific Literacy
We aim to see every child in New Zealand become scientifically literate. This means they have a clear understanding of science concepts and processes encountered in their daily lives. Improving scientific literacy will have a huge economic and social benefit to New Zealand.
Critical Thinking Skills
Science teaches us how to gather and interpret information, and to make informed decisions. A key skill in light of the prolific ‘fake news’ on all media platforms.
Economic Prosperity
Our future economy depends on advancements in clean technology, automation and digital innovation. A scientifically literate workforce will have the skills to embrace this future of work.
Health & Wellbeing
Science enables us as individuals to make informed decisions about diet, exercise and medical treatments. These choices directly impact our personal health and wellbeing and that of our families.
Our Values
Fostering Curiosity
Making It Count
We are here to make a positive difference in the lives of our children by helping teachers deliver great science lessons.
Empowering People
We create an environment where people can think big, have fun and contribute in a safe and inclusive way.
Being Curious
We ask questions and challenge the status quo in order to create a better tomorrow.
Such an awesome kit!!!!!!! I’m not too great at science, as I don’t know how to teach or where to start, but these kits… I loved it! Already booked another three, and can’t wait to get into them with my students. A mātou mihi nui!!!!!!

This has been such a motivator in my classroom. It has reignited our spark for learning. We now consider ourselves the Water Cycle experts in our school, as this is what our school wide focus includes for this term

Love that they are easy to follow for the kids and teachers a like. I had to leave a couple for relievers to run and they were able to pick them up and continue.

Te Kura absolutely love the kits. They are used during our Huinga ako sessions and have proven a real hit. Akonga in Wairoa and Tairawhiti receive lessons and enjoy the hands-on activities and links to the world around them. Science has come alive for them. Thank you.

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.
