The National Water Week website is the portal to a national schedule of programs and events that encourage protection, rehabilitation and improvement of water environments such as streams, wetlands, waterways, beaches, and estuaries. This year, the theme for National Water Week is ‘Securing Our Water Future’.
As part of the AUSSI-WA celebrations, a teacher from each region of Ribbons of Blue will be acknowledged for their long term committment to the program.
Several teachers from each region are invited to the evening. These awards will mark the 20th anniversary of Ribbons of Blue in WA.

Water in Australia
All over our big, brown land people want to know how to save water or make more effective use of the water we currently use. Even in the middle of winter we can experience the effects of little or no rain to improve the water storage of our dams.
The exhibition Just Add Water tells stories of Australians and our relations with water. In an exciting and interactive space, people will be able to engage with the topic on a social, scientific and ecological level, as well as an emotional one. This timely exhibition encompasses a subject that impacts on everyone.
The touring exhibition from the National Archives of Australia will be on show at the WA Museum, Perth from May 29 – July 31.
Downloadable Student Resources are also available from the Just Add Water website.
Other information can be found at the CMIS Water theme page.
