Bathurst Regional Council has developed a free water education program for young children (3.5 - 5 year old) for all Educators.
The program consists of five modules:
- The Water Cycle;
- How Do We Use Water;
- Water In Bathurst;
- Being Conservative with Water; and
- Keeping Our Waterways Clean & Healthy
Each module is broken into key learning elements. Each learning element uses fun activities and guided discussions, and an array of activity sheets, support resources and videos to engage children in the learning journey.
At the start of each module there's an overview or snapshot of the learning element's topics and activities, a useful list of key terms and definitions, and detailed background and contextual information on the module focus area.
