Activity - Pioneer Water Race

This activity center is part of the Water Attitudes theme.

Purpose of this activity:

This activity illustrates how difficult it is to haul water. It is intended to encourage students to appreciate the fact that we have water piped directly into our homes, schools and businesses and to have them rethink taking clean water for granted just because we have easy access to it.

Key messages:

• We tend to take water for granted because it is always there when we turn on the tap
• However, water is a limited resource that is essential to life
• We must use water wisely
