LOCAL primary school students were recently taught the importance of being water savvy through song, dance and an interactive stage show as part of Unitywater’s education program.
Students from Coolum State School and Pacific Paradise enjoyed the unique learning experience.
Unitywater Executive Manager Strategic Engagement, Joshua Zugajev, said the live show was a way to help educate the next generation to use water wisely.
“Unitywater is here to support healthy and thriving communities beyond the safe and reliable delivery of water and wastewater services to homes and businesses,” Mr Zugajev said.
“We know kids are the best advocates, and as they soak up the information, they then share it with their families at home.”
Gibber Educational Director, Vicky Blackburn, said the show featured professional performers who use theatre to achieve positive change in attitude and behaviour.
“Through innovative drama-based training, we’re happy to help spread Unitywater’s message of using water efficiently – even when it’s raining outside!” Ms Blackburn said.
