Water Testing Kit
Improving New Zealand’s water quality is an area of great concern for the dairy industry. As such, School Kit was commissioned by DairyNZ to deliver the Water Testing Kit in 2020. The purpose of the kit was very clear - get students out of the classroom, down to a local waterway and perform scientific testing to determine the quality of the water.
We created a complete Water Testing Kit, with all the scientific equipment needed to conduct 8 tests measuring the quality of the waterway. The tests were based off NIWA’s SHMAK kit and allowed students to accurately determine what level of health their local waterway has.
What people said.
“This kit has been perfect for my year 7/8 class. They enjoyed each and every aspect and it has helped us gain a deeper understanding of the health of our local waterways.”
“This kit was a huge opportunity for our tamariki to gain practicle knowledge and hands on learning within our outdoor environment.”
“Students were empowered to inquire, be innovative, and curious about their local awa. Akonga were fully engaged from the start of the unit and absolutely loved the stream visit and performing the tests.
