Where we can hold the session
We can hold the session at your school, at one of our education centres, or virtually.
If you choose to visit one of our education centres, you can also go on a tour of the site’s water treatment or water recycling centre.
Please note that sessions at our sites are only suitable for ages eight and above.

A typical session will last up to 90 minutes, starting with a presentation followed by a fun hands-on activity or STEM investigation.
Sessions at our sites generally last between two and four hours and will also include a tour which typically lasts one hour.
