“As we embarked on our learning journey, we quickly realised we had a lot we could do to help save water. Especially by just taking shorter showers! Another aspect we strived to do better in was turning off the tap while washing our hands, some of us found this very tricky. We were happy with our school dining hall, which encouraged us to scrap excess food into bins for the pigs!”

“The students loved the activities and content. They were all trying to save water using the steps and tracking sheets included. Children were eager to come in, in the mornings to stamp the charts and compare which water saving method was 'winning'. Most important in was a fun and engaging way to teach learners about water, why we need it and why it's important to save it.”

“Great links to maths, statistics, graphing etc. Students enjoyed learning how to save water and annoying their parents. Farm kids on tank water already understood the concept of conservation. Debates on the taste of town water.”
