For Teachers — CAPS / PAT School Project Kits
Wow We school project kits are designed for South African technology and STEM classrooms. Kits are laser-cut, made locally, and map cleanly to common PAT / project themes — electromagnetism, hydraulics, structures, pulleys, and more.
### Why teachers use Wow We
• Ready-cut parts — less prep time than cardboard scrap builds
• Consistent class sets — same kit for every learner
• Clear build experience with assembly resources on site
• Designed and manufactured in South Africa (Kempton Park)

### Classroom tips
• Plan 1–3 lessons for assembly depending on grade and kit size
• Kits that need wood glue include it (usually a 10 ml bottle), and kits that need batteries include them. Learners only add paint if they want colour (plus clean water for the hydraulic kits)
• Supervise cutting/sanding edges and electrical steps on powered kits
• Pair the build with a short write-up: aim, method, results, improvements (classic PAT structure)
