Clean Water Champions program:

Students will learn about our freshwater systems and how they connect to the ocean. They will understand how our habits impact our waterways, and get empowered to take action against plastic pollution. Students will also learn about recycling habits and the benefits of recycling to our environment!

During the program, students will work in groups to create stewardship projects (i.e. projects to raise awareness and care for our environment) to engage their schools and communities in diverting pollution from freshwater systems and our oceans.

The program consists of 3x 1 hour workshops that will take place on the same day.
