Waterwise program

The Waterwise Schools Program is a FREE program funded by Kempsey Shire Council, Coffs Harbour City Council, Bellingen Shire Council and Clarence Valley Council. It is taught by qualified teachers available to both public and independent schools.

These programs are linked to the NSW curriculum.

The Waterwise Schools Program includes:

• Hands-on lessons linked to the new NSW Curriculum in Science, HSIE, and PDHPE, taught by trained Waterwise Educators.
• A water audit at your school, done by a chosen class or stage group with guidance from Waterwise Educators.
• Professional development and resources for teachers before and after the program, tailored to your school’s needs.
