There are incredible prizes up for grabs, such as science experiment kits, and schools can also win a $200 voucher towards an environmental project. In addition, this year all schools entering the competition are being entered into a free prize draw to win a $300 voucher provided by Southern Rural Water. The competition is open to all primary school students in East Gippsland.

Harriet Freeman's poster from Grade 5/6, Orbost Primary School is one of the runners up from the National Water Week primary school poster competition

Joining the competition

This year's poster theme is 'Our water stories' - where students can demonstrate their knowledge of local water issues uniquely and creatively. It is a great opportunity to learn and develop a deep understanding of the importance of water and using it efficiently.

All primary schools in the region have received an email inviting them to participate. The closing date for entries is 4 pm on Friday 2nd September, with the competition winners to be presented with their prizes during National Water Week (17 - 23 October).

Posters can be mailed to East Gippsland Water, PO Box 52, 133 Macleod St, Bairnsdale 3875, or dropped off at the Macleod Street address during business hours. Alternatively, they can be emailed to education@egwater.vic.gov.au. Entry forms are available at Poster Competition Information and Entry Criteria web page.
