“I am so thankful that I was able to get yet another fabulous schools kit. My children just loved this. Many had the bricks at home having such a collection really helped to engage and captivate them. We learnt about many aspects of farming and the integration with literacy was great in a junior class. Thank you”

“Fantastic! From the moment we opened the box the collaborative learning began. It was such a problem solving mission for my little learners to piece together the tractors, bikes, trucks etc. and they felt so proud of their achievements! We used the Hua rakau and Hua whenua as a regular motivation for our te reo maaori”

“I loved the whole idea of this kit and my class were very excited about trying it. However as new entrants they found putting the pieces together very difficult and it was challenging to get momentum when they were focused on playing with the already set pieces and struggling to make buildings. We ended up having senior classes help with the building.”
