Water Care Lesson

On Friday we were very lucky to have a teacher come from Water Care to talk to us about our impact on the environment. We talked about the consequences of putting the wrong things into our waste water systems. We also did some experiments with water to see how changing an environment can impact on the rivers and lakes.

 We learnt where our waste goes in pipes under our house.

We got into groups and built paths with rocks and plastic. We then poured water on our structures to see where rivers and lakes would form.

We looked at what car oil, cooking oil, paint, dishwashing liquid and food looks like if we release it into the oceans. This would make the sea life very ill.
