“This kit was used on a combined year 4 to 8 class. They thoroughly enjoyed the kit. It encouraged them to look at another side of the story. Which tamariki found challenging but they had fabulous discussions around it.”

How has this kit changed your perspective on teaching NZ History? It has defintely taught me how to approach this to a range of people and to enforce that there are two sides to a story! I learnt a lot and I have learnt some about the Treaty of Waitangi.

“This kit was very intense, and actually became a bit much for our kids. It was incredibly well presented, and the information in it was fantastic. However, it quickly went over the heads of the students I had this year. They found it very difficult to understand all the different parts of the puzzle.
