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.
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,” Ms Cumming said.
“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.”
Entries opened on Monday, April 28 2025 and close on Friday, September 12 2025.
Local winners will automatically be entered into the statewide poster competition as part of National Water Week (October 20-26, 2025).
