2004 Construction Site Programme

TelstraClear Pacific ran a highly successful education programme based around the construction and development of the Events Centre during the 2004 school year. 

The Programme was free to schools in Counties Manukau, linked closely to the Social Studies Curriculum and included a Teacher Resource Kit.  Over 3000 students visited the construction site and learnt about how the crane works, how the stormwater pond works and how a community facility like TelstraClear Pacific has developed.

Teacher evaluations overwhelmingly agreed that the programme was a valuable learning experience. 

"I was so impressed with the whole concept of the visit – fantastic mix of theory into practice.  Varied, focused learning activities and the tour guide was just the best!   If only our entire day could be this interactive" - Tina Voordouw, Rongomai Primary, Otara, Auckland.
