REEL EARTH SCHOOLS PROGRAMME
This year's Programme weaves together three themes:

If a school cannot collect/return a loan kit, we will courier it to the school. A charge for this will be added to the invoice.Please return the kits promptly, as another school may be waiting for them. We expect some wear and tear on the kits but there will be a fee for loss or unreasonable damage. Please fill in the evaluation form included in the kit. This helps us to assess whether or not the kits are meeting your needs.
