The production, ‘Walter Smart and Friends’, was delivered to schools across Moreton Bay, Noosa and the Sunshine Coast, and wrapped at Jinibara State School in Narangba.
Unitywater Executive Manager Strategic Engagement Joshua Zugajev said the program had been an excellent way to engage and connect with primary school-aged students about water efficiency.
“We’re committed to paving the way for a sustainable future in our region, and part of this means equipping our young people with the knowledge and understanding of how and why it is important we use water wisely,” Mr Zugajev said.
“‘Walter Smart and Friends’ has proved to be an excellent way to engage our students, in a fun and effective way that is aligned to the Australian curriculum. It also teaches wastewater management and flushing behaviours, reminding students to only flush the Three Ps – pee, poo and toilet paper!”
Teacher Kellie McFadzen said the performance at Mountain Creek State School was engaging for her students.
“It was very age-appropriate and had lots of detail – it was fantastic following dance moves and raps and how (the characters) engaged with one another,” she said.
The performance was delivered to students from Prep to Year Six.
