Gippsland Water is giving local students the chance to become water heroes by entering this year's National Water Week poster competition. Students are encouraged to design, draw or paint a poster that reflects this year's theme, Water Heroes: Save Every Drop.

Early Learning collaborative prize winners Kailani, Elijah, Heidi, Willow, Ari and Tina from Glassford Street Uniting Kindergarten, who placed third in the 2024 collaborative statewide competition

Categories are open for early learning, kindergarten and primary school students from across the organisation's service area. Entrants will be eligible to win a gift voucher and a Gippsland Water prize pack featuring a bag, drink bottle, colouring pencils, trigger nozzle and native seeds.

Managing director Sarah Cumming said the poster competition was a fun and engaging way to teach local students about conserving water. "This is a wonderful opportunity for local students to learn important water saving lessons, while also showing their creative flair. The theme works hand in hand with our 'Reduce your use' campaign, which focuses on water conservation."

"We're keen to see entries that inspire locals to take shorter showers, turn-off taps while brushing their teeth, using buckets and sponges to wash cars, or planting drought tolerant native plants," Ms Cumming said. Entries open on Monday, 28 April 2025 and close on Friday,12 September 2025. Local winners will automatically be entered into the statewide poster competition as part of National Water Week (20-26 October 2025).
