A few months ago Microsoft NZ donated NZ6K to CodeClub NZ for the purchase of kits for our basic electronics and programming classes.

Over the last couple of months I have been assembling these so we now have 15 kits ready to go. Each one has enough gear for 2-6 students, fits into a 7L Sistema plastic box and contains the following items

2 x Netduino 2 Plus devices

In addition to the Netduino devices and the Grove starter kits, we also include
