This National Water Week we want to help you celebrate with your students, with this years theme being 'reimagining our water future'. All across Australia, teachers and students will be recognising and celebrating the importance water has on our lives.

Tasmanians are water people. We are surrounded by the sea and fortunate to have streams, rivers, lakes and ponds.

We want to help you celebrate the importance of water with your students! We're asking teachers to deepen young Tasmanians' relationship with and understanding of water. Ask your students to think about and express what water means to them.

To prepare your students, you can find a wealth of resources on the Australian Water Association website.

To participate, students will pair a visual representation of their water place (a drawing, painting or photograph) with a piece of writing (a poem, story or essay).

Entries can be submitted to education@hydro.com.au and must be accompanied by a schools entry form. The school with the highest percentage of student participation will win (terms and conditions apply).

Submissions close Friday 27 November 2020. 

We'll be looking at every submission and will select various entries to display on the student hub gallery, our Facebook page and at the Waddamana Power Station Heritage Site gallery space.
