Don't take our word for it, have a read of what some of the
teachers and students using HotRock modules have to say...
HotRock Education Modules
"I would recommend it
as it is very straight forward, hands-on learning.
I also think it is great that the lesson plans are
easy to print and there is not much planning on the teachers
part. It is a very convenient, well
planned resource that I would use again and
again."
"The Carbon powerpoint
looks great too. I've already used your Lorax activity with
my Year 9's. They really enjoyed it." - Grant Taylor, Science,
Applecross Senior High School
"What is
Sustainability Anyway gives teachers good starting points to teach
the topic of sustainability. Lessons
are varied with good use of technology to capture students
interest."- Grant Taylor, Applecross Senior High
School
"Fantastic website - SUPER
resources - great work!"- Richard, One Arm
Point
"I really liked doing this module
(Grow Organic - GROW and SOIL) and would recommend teachers to do
this in every school." - Year 10 Student from Greg Lancaster
Science Class, Australind Senior High School.
Personal Experience with HotRock
"Thanks so much for coming to the
meeting on Friday. It was great to have you. I am very
pleased that you can afford the time to help us out because you
have experience and knowledge that I am lacking but I am prepared
to do the things I can. With your expertise and contacts behind you
it makes it a lot more possible to achieve more. So I really
appreciate what you are doing for us and I am sure it will be a
great, positive journey for me, for the Science department, for the
school and the students as a whole."- Peter Crouch, Mandurah
Baptist College
"During my Graduate Diploma I completed a
practicum in the Art department at South Fremantle Senior High
School. During this time I was privileged to design and co-teach
three projects sponsored by HotRock. I was very impressed with what
your company does. I also saw first hand how students reacted to
the fact that somebody outside of their world would be willing to
sponsor them to learn. It was very clear that it made them really
receptive to the ideas and values that your company promotes." -
Anna Henshall
"Many thanks for the opportunity.
We embrace each and every aspect of our collaboration." - Gary
Anderson, Principal Lynwood Senior High School
"Thanks for all you are doing for our
school - it is a huge gift to us and I appreciate it." - Peter
Crouch, Mandurah Baptist College
Workshops
"I just wanted to let you know that we got some
excellent feedback on your workshop last week from Ashdale Primary
School. They said that they loved it, it was exciting and they
found it very inspiring!" - Meg Greenhill, Waste Wise Schools
Program
"Your Professional Development
back in July was inspirational and after a lot of convincing
I have managed to talk our school into starting our own 'earth
garden'. You mentioned this type of activity was difficult to
implement in high schools, I also believe private primary
schools have the same mentality, thanks to Hotrock for their
guidance."- Tanya Quinn, John Septimus Roe Anglican Community
School
It was very good to be in the same
space at the workshop as like minded people and to see what can be
done with a clear vision of goals and expertise to help." - Libby
Dimmer
Earth Garden
"I am very excited
to report that lower school art classes have commenced creative
projects for the Greenroom and Kali Garden, which have been kindly
funded by environmental group, Hotrock. A big thanks is extended to
Hotrock for their support and an even bigger congratulations is
extended to all year 8 and 9 art students who have been motivated
and focused in getting these projects off the ground."- Emma
Havard, South Fremantle SHS Art
teacher
"The chooks have now laid just over 12 eggs and Bronte
cooked a quiche last night almost totally from the Earth Garden -
eggs, silverbeet, chives, onion and beetroot. It was delicious!!" -
Greg Lancaster, Australind SHS
"It has been an amazing
project and very exciting to see the art students so
committed to the shadehouse murals - which was quite a big project
for the year 8's ti undertake. It's always great to raise the bar
and watch the kids reach for it creatively." - Emma Harvard,
South Fremantle SHS Art Teacher
"Wow!!!! That is great news. We are also very
indebted to you and your team. That cost is significantly
lower also because of hotrock taking on the organising and all the
main work. I am amazed that you have helped us so much.
I thought it would just be hotrock giving us some money and
we have to organise and do it ourselves. I can't believe the
level of support you have given us. Once again. Thanks
so much." - Peter Crouch, Head of Science, Mandurah Baptist
College
