“This was a fantastic project and the kids in my class loved doing it. They spoke to a variety of women and enjoyed listening to their stories. Discussion was sparked and links made between themselves and women of the past here in Aotearoa.”
“I am gutted I didn’t get this last year when it was the big celebration!
Such an important topic for all New Zealanders my students saw the importance of why we were looking into the history.
We loved the resources in the kit.”
“The kit was great and had lots of potential for older students. The parts we did were very powerful and had students bringing in their family to share their learning in the mornings.”
“A fantastic front loader for our topic 'The Cost of being a Pioneer'. The students loved seeing the ancient materials used and how powerful women were and not only men.”
“My students loved the 'Are We There Yet' kit. They got so passionate about it and were disgusted by some of the statistics about the treatment of women.”
“This has been a fantastic resource to get our students thinking about feminism, the role women have historically taken in our society and the present status quo. Students have been surprised and, in some cases, astounded at the information they have uncovered.
Thank you so much for a thought provoking, relevant social studies kit.”
“Very in depth look at poems and writing them evolved.
Fun ideas - loved the objects.
The sharing was inspiring. We shared with Christchurch so added extra messages. Was so nice to do it for them.”
