The Great Race - Key Competencies in Actions
Minds-on
This programme will develop and strengthen the Key Competencies within your class. Students will discover how the Victorian way of life can help them to relate to others, manage self, think, participate and contribute in an environmentally friendly way.
Hands-on
In this fun-filled programme students form teams and complete a number of hands-on challenges across MOTAT's site inspired by life in the Victorian era. Students will experience the number of tasks involved in just washing some clothes!
Plus
Accompanying adults are encouraged to participate within the activities and observe how the group operates.
"One student cried on the morning of the trip because she had to work with people she would never choose to (the whole point of the trip). Her team were the winners and she had a great day. So thanks for making this experience very real to us" Teacher, Auckland, Decile 5
