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.

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.

Schools Water Efficiency Program (SWEP)
The Schools Water Efficiency Program (SWEP) is a FREE Victorian Government initiative open to all Victorian schools. SWEP enables schools to monitor their water consumption and detect leaks by using data-logger technology. This information can then be accessed by teachers and students through a fun interactive website. The interactive website provides students the opportunity to learn about water efficiency with SWEP’s curriculum aligned primary and secondary worksheets and activity guides.
Real time data is captured with automated leak alerts sent to a nominated email address, notifying of any unusually high usage. This saves water, money and the environment.
SWEP is a joint initiative of the Department if Energy Environment and Climate Action, the Department of Education and supported by Lower Murray Water.
