What influence has this kit had in promoting the longevity of water saving habits and what other water related topics did your students come up with?
The kit has had a significant influence in promoting the longevity of water-saving habits among our students. By providing hands-on activities and practical tools, it helped students internalize the importance of conserving water in their daily lives. Many students reported sharing what they learned with their families, leading to long-term changes at home, such as turning off taps while brushing, fixing leaks promptly, and using water-efficient appliances. The interactive nature of the kit helped ensure that these habits were not just short-term actions but became part of their regular routines. In addition to water conservation, students explored a range of other water-related topics. These included the impact of water pollution on local ecosystems, the importance of clean drinking water globally, innovative technologies for water purification, and the effects of climate change on water availability. Some students even proposed community projects, like organizing river clean-ups or creating awareness campaigns about reducing plastic waste to protect waterways. Overall, the kit served as a springboard for deeper inquiry and action around water sustainability.

What was the impact of the daily stamping practice in your classroom and which water benchmark did your students find most fascinating?
The daily stamping practice had a positive impact in our classroom. It provided a fun and visual way for students to track their efforts and progress, which helped keep water-saving habits front of mind each day. The routine of stamping created a sense of accountability, and students became genuinely excited to meet their goals so they could proudly add their stamp. It also encouraged teamwork, as they supported and reminded one another to stick to their water-saving commitments. Over time, this small daily ritual helped embed lasting habits and reinforced the idea that consistent, mindful actions can make a big difference.
How have your students' perceptions of water conservation changed since using the resource and did it foster a sense of responsibility and awareness in your classroom?
Since using the resource, our students’ perceptions of water conservation have noticeably shifted. What began as a general understanding of the need to “save water” has deepened into a more meaningful awareness of how their individual actions contribute to the wellbeing of their communities and the environment. They now see water not just as something that comes from the tap, but as a precious, shared resource that must be protected.
