Waterways: clean-up
TLF ID A002846
We all have the power to help keep our coastlines, rivers, lakes, swamps, creeks, floodplains, billabongs and estuaries clean by diverting rubbish from our waterways. This can be done with regular clean-ups, picking up litter when you see it, and changing our behaviour such as limiting our use of single-use plastic. This learning activity is part of a sequence of 2 individual learning activities focused on cleaning up our waterways. The order of these learning activities are: clean-up and behaviour change. OUTCOMES are for children to: understand our role as custodians of the land and waterways; look at our behaviours and adopt a greater perspective; appreciate that our actions can make a visible difference to the health of our waterways; undertake a waterways rubbish audit and clean-up; and value water as a precious asset that sustains us.
