South Auckland House of Science relies on volunteers to service the primary school students of East/South Auckland. I am looking for volunteers to
join a small team to help process the kits that have been returned from our member schools. This involves checking the equipment in the kit (cleaning if necessary) and restocking the consumables. Must have a reasonable command of written English.

We operate on a fortnightly loan system and require help every second Friday from 10 am during the school terms.


I do require volunteers on Friday 5th July, or else it will be from Friday 2nd August.

They generously sponsored a kit called 'A Load of Rubbish'. This kit teaches students about recycling, linear and circular economies and aligns with HERA's sustainability goals. Students also get to play with several different super absorbent polymers, make their own bio-plastic out of cornflour and investigate 7 straws from the raw materials through to the end use. When I visited HERA to show them the kit, they were blown away by how comprehensive it was and that the kits are bilingual.
