Year 8 Geography – Water Project

Ellana Costa – HSIE & Studies of Religion Teacher

The Year 8 Geography class is working with Dr Mary Brydon-Miller from the University of Louisville on a “Future Creating Workshop” as they complete their unit on water this term.

The project is in connection with UTS and involves the class completing a water audit of the School, including comparing water bills over time and examining the water saving technology that is used on campus.

The class then thought of “utopian” solutions to reduce water use at Emanuel School and are now refining these into “realistic” solutions.

The project will culminate with students creating a presentation for the Executive that focuses on ways to improve the School’s water efficiency.
