“This resource was great quality and a great time of the year as I had a few new children start when I started using the kit. The children loved the battery pad and I would see them using it throughout the day to get 'charged'. The giant playground map was a great visual to help support all children on knowing the area that we were discussing.”

“I really thought this was a great kit to get children to make new connections with others in the class. The morning tea play booklet meant that some children who had never played together did so and made new friendships. The battery charge station gave me a good idea of how the children were feeling which led to good conversations as to how things could improve for them.”

“Respectful Relationships 22 The kit matched with our school values respect and connect, and PB4L perfectly. As Yr 1's we enjoyed sharing some of the activities with our Big Yr 4 buddies. It was great to see the children "mentoring"/helping one another branch out with friendship groups in the class and playground.”

The resources are very easy to integrate into existing programmes such as literacy, and digital technologies. There's a good range of cross-curricular ideas too. Great kit!”
