“Students loved planting their plants and watching the magic Earth grow in front of their eyes. They were excited as soon as they saw the little pots. They have eagerly waited for their seed to pop through the ground. They are now racing to see whose is the tallest and biggest. Loved the resources that were available to use with this too !”

“This kit was good but I found it hard to get the buy in with initial story, the young children found it hard to relate to. The young Year 2's in y class found it hard to fill in the Club Membership forms independently. Could the form be have an easier version next time too? The timing of getting the kits and then the badges had a huge impact on when we could start the kit and then to get buy in for the club. They loved planitng and growing the plants though.”
