Year 5 received a visit from NI Water this term as part of their World Around Us topic - “Liquid Gold.” NI Water’s educational programme, ‘H2O and the Wonderful World of Water’, taught Year 5 about the value of water and how important it is for us all to look after it.
During the visit, the children were introduced to H20, a water drop figure and mascot for the programme. They learnt how rainwater is cleaned and sewage is treated, keeping the country healthy. They took part in a ‘Bag it and Bin it’ activity to demonstrate what can and can’t be put down the toilet.
The children were also introduced to NI Water’s chosen charity – WaterAid, who work to help those who have no access to safe water or sanitation.
