Teacher and school resources
We have a range of resources designed to inspire students of all ages to think about water and its wonders.
Our education resources are designed for primary school and kindergarten students to increase awareness and understanding of our river system, water treatment processes, the water cycle and the wonders of water.
SuperH2O Education program
Our education program is aimed at primary school students and educating student about the next generation on water-focused topics and why water is important.
Schools can download or the full teaching program of four modules. There are presentations slides, student worksheets, teacher notes and a rubric for each year level – including Prep/Foundation, Grades 1 and 2, Grades 3 and 4 and Grades 5 and 6. All modules have been linked to the Victorian curriculum.
We’d love to hear your feedback on the education modules.
We also have a life-size Super Water Saver Game that schools can borrow.

Water explorers
This incursion is best for 4-year-old kinder students. The activity runs for 45 minutes.
This incursion involves exploring the kinder or centre to find where there’s water. Students discover the taps, toilets and water play activities involving water. We look at the different places outside of kinder that use water. Students draw their water story using pencils and paper. To finish the session, students gather in a circle and help to identify the different water environments where animals live.
Waste warriors
This incursion is best for 3-year-old kinder or day-care students. The activity runs for 30–45 minutes.
This incursion involves learning about the three Ps that should go in the toilet – pee, poo and paper. Students help to identify what belongs in the toilet and what belongs in the bin. Using a water droplet template, students colour in their own raindrop that forms a rain cloud decoration for their classroom. To finish the session, students gather in a circle for a game that involves identifying what floats and what sinks in water.
