Assessment Aimed at Getting Children to tell their parents about ways to help the planet . starting at home

I choose installing a water tank.
Remember when reading this that it is aimed and children.


GO GREEN

GET A TANK…!





Water is essential to life on Earth, but people tend to treat it like there is an endless supply. It's time to talk about the value of water and how you can protect your future.


It’s up to us to start thinking … “it’s good to be saving water”


Every drop counts…

To start being smarter about the way we use water in your home, tell your parents about water tanks.


 What is a tank?

It’s like a drink bottle, it holds water. It connects to your gutter with a pipe and when it rains all the water from your roof goes into the bottle/Tank.


There are many different types of tanks. Big round one’s as big as a swimming pool or you can get a slim line one that fits nicely down the side of the house.

Why should you get a tank?


By getting a tank you are not only saving water but your parents would save money when their water bill comes in. It saves it from just going down the drain and into the ocean. There’s enough water in there already isn’t there!
What can you use it for?


You can use the water to drink/have a bath or shower and even brush your teeth...


Did you know? That rain water is better for you then the water you get from your taps if you don’t have a tank already.

You can also just use it to water the garden, as plants love rain water. Just connect a hose to your tank and there you go… All the water you need is there to make your flowers grow.
