Two Calista students are very concerned about the wasted water at their school and are doing something about it. They have identified the problem, taken some photos and developed a plan. At Millennium Kids, we get very excited when students think so scientifically and creatively about environmental issues. Here we have some problem-solvers of the future! Here's the plan.
WATER SAVING PIPE SOLUTION
Hi, I’m Oscar and my friend Connor is working on making a
water saving pipe system. It is going to take a while to build because it is
complicated and big pipes are involved with this project. We will need 2 large funnels, 1 pool filter, 2 large Gas and
Liquid Nitrogen canisters, 2 medium sized metal chambers, 1 large mesh piece,
1000 kilowatt motor, cement and 50 pipes.
The tools we will be trying to get hold of are shovels, and
a jackhammer.
It works by collecting the water from the air con and the rain.
I am looking forward to hearing the progress of this idea!
Imagine this. Today I was at the Grove Library, an amazing sustainability building in Cottesloe - Peppermint Grove and I was talking about the boys project, when who should walk in but a man and a baby. He started talking about the building. He seemed to know a lot. I introduced myself and told him about the students from Calista PS and he got really excited. It turned out he was the architect - yes - the man who designed the energy saving, water saving 5 * energy rated building. AND HE WANTS TO MEET THE CALISTA KIDS - WOOT WOOT WOOT. I WILL BE CALLING YOU SOON. CAT MK
