Water Audit Activity
How does your school use water? Students are challenged to investigate how and where your school uses the most water.
Drain or not to Drain
How does soil impact our water on the Central Coast? Students experiment with three types of soil to understand this interaction.
The Drip Trip
This activity provides an interactive immersion into how the Central Coast Water Supply works. Students become experts in various components of the water supply system while adding their specific items to the diagram along the way.
Waterwise Garden
Students get to measure, audit and collect data about the water efficiency of the gardens at school. How waterwise is your schools garden? Let’s dig in!
Running Dry
Groundwater bores are used all around Australia to access water. Students get to use a simulation to learn more about bores and the potential impacts on the environment.
