exciting NEW PROJECT OF RAISE KIDS WORK
A new experience for Key Stage 2 (8-11s)
The Puzzle Pod is Raise Kids Work’s Bible-Based Escape Rooms.
Our first theme takes us through the story of Joseph from the Old Testament. They start off in Canaan and progress through to Egypt.
By using team work and problem solving the Puzzle Pod allows the children to learn the themes and key parts of the story.

Testimonials
The project around creating a mobile Pod which contains an Escape Room linked to key themes and stories from the Bible is inspirational and would provide a much needed new and exciting opportunity for schools.
– Christopher Allen,
Diocese of Norwich RE Adviser, Senior Lead Officer for SIAMS, Collective Worship & Christian Distinctiveness
The Puzzle Pod gave us a really good opportunity to see the children’s teamwork skills come into play. We noticed different children rising to the challenge and each group was able to navigate their way, with your help, through the puzzles successfully. As well as bringing the story of Joseph to life, the Pod gave pupils kinaesthetic opportunities to make their learning memorable.
– Mrs Livermore,
Year 5/6 Teacher
It challenged the children’s thinking and was seen as a fun activity which builds a positive relationship between the children and RE.
– Mr Smith,
SEN Student Support Assistant
The children sometimes have the opinion that RE is boring, this interactive activity allows children to learn about stories from The Bible and learn about God and his teachings without being told directly.
– Miss Prime,
Year 6 Teacher
