THE Guyana Water Incorporated (GWI) recently restarted its H2O Kidz In Action School Education Programme, which focuses on the promotion of water conservation and water-wise decisions through education.
As part of this initiative, a team from the Communication Department visited the Sophia Primary School in Georgetown on Thursday, where pupils were engaged and topics such as water conservation and the importance of water for the body were discussed.
The pupils showed great interest in the presentations and gained knowledge about the GWI. At the end of the session, pupils received prizes after answering questions.
Additionally, 10 pupils were selected to become GWI water ambassadors.
The programme was first introduced in 2009 and was meant to be a permanent feature of GWI’s education and awareness function. The programme involved workshops on water conservation, water and the body, and the hydrological cycle.
