Walk the length of NZ 19 Reviews

4.6 Rating 237 Reviews
My Y8 class thoroughly loved using all the different pedometers to see how far we could walk. Unfortunately we didn't walk the length of NZ (but had fun trying to).

Being in a collaborative space our kids really enjoyed the physical nature of the kit and tying in Maths as well. They were really surprised by the difference in every0ones footsteps and loved loved loved the pedometers. They were all different, but i presume that's what you wanted us to find out. We had cross country around the time that this kit was out, so cross country training was so much more focused and engaged with their training than they normally would be. We really appreciate the resources, such an awesome kit and our kids were so engaged the whole time. Thanks school kit.

We had a great time as a school collecting steps to donate! So many of our older students were very competitive, and we even created a prize challenge for the classroom that was able to collect the most steps! One of our deputy principals even ran into the school from her home! So amazing! We even put a call out to our parents and families to help donate some steps! We enjoyed using the pedometers, and the classrooms really loved the colourful shoelaces that were given in the kits! Great learning and great engagement from the students!

We had to delay the use of this kit. But the kids and families loved it. So many cross curricula links. Fantastic resource yet again.

My class really loved this kit! They were so excited to use the different kinds of pedometers and they quickly figured out which pedometers were ineffective. Thank you School Kit for such a great box of goodies and such fun ideas that integrate different curriculum areas :-)

My class loved getting up and active with their maths learning. We ended up learning about NZ as well as measurement so great integration! We had lots of discussion and comparison regarding the pedometers too!
