Preface
Introduction to the plan for suggested activities
In order to create an atmosphere of water conservation and cultivate students' water saving habits, Water Supplies Department has designed a series of competitions and activities for participating schools on water resources conservation and protection. Schools may select or modify any settings of the suggested activities and competitions according to the syllabus and actual needs.
Ideas and usages
The Integrated Education Programme aims at promoting an awareness of water conservation through a wide variety of competitions and activities. These activities focus on facilitating students' development and establishing a positive attitude of life. The competitions are divided into six categories, namely graphic design, creative writing, performing arts, scientific inquiry, debate and quiz. All competitions and activities, including intra-school and inter-school competitions, can be modified and adjusted by schools to suit the needs according to the actual situation. Not only do we hope to arouse concerns on water conservation amongst students and stakeholders, but also facilitate students' development in different aspects. For example, competitions may enhance their gen- eric skills in the following areas:
1. Graphic design competition: Inspiring students' creativity and graphic presentation skills. 2.Creative writing competition: Inspiring students' creativity, improving organising skills, language
skills and communication techniques. 3. Performing arts competition: Inspiring students' creativity, improving organising skills, conversation
skills, collaboration skills and communication techniques. 4. Scientific inquiry competition: Inspiring students' creativity, improving scientific inquiry abilities,
logical thinking, mathematical and statistical skills.
5. Debate competition: Inspiring students' logical thinking, improving organising skills, conversation skills and communication skills.
6. Quiz competition: Polishing students' memorising abilities, improving reaction speed and collaboration skills.

Background
In order to raise the awareness and cultivate habits of water conservation among the younger generation, WSD will continue to implement the School Water Audit in primary schools. Also, as part of the Integrated Education Programme on Water Conservation,WSD has intro- duced the Home Water Audit activity to extend water conservation practices from school to home, encourage students to spread the message of water conservation to family and friends as well as to put water conservation into practice.
Objectives
1. Educate pupils on the knowledge and means of water conservation at home; 2. Encourage students and their family members to practice water conservation at home; 3. Help students develop appropriate water saving habits.
Target
Junior primary category: Primary 1 to 3 Senior primary category: Primary 4 to 6
Educational materials
1. Worksheets (Junior I Senior) 2. Practical water saving tips
Junior primary category
Activity details 1. Record the date and water meter reading on the worksheet 7 days before the audit. 2. Start the activity officially and record the starting date and water meter reading; the activity
should be continued for 7 days. 3. After the activity, record the date and water meter reading again. 4. Calculate the volume of water used in the 7 days before the audit and 7 days after the audit, then
compare the volume of water used during the two periods. 5. Record the number of family members at home during the week of the activity - for example,
grandfathers, grandmothers, father, mother, siblings (including yourself), and also domestic helpers.
6. Record on the worksheet the water saving practices carried out every day during the week of the activity by every family member (including yourself). For example: -Taking showers for less than 5 minutes; -Reusing water, such as grey water from washing rice/ vegetables/ clothes;
-Reducing the consumption of virtual water, such as ceasing the consumption of packaged beverage or bottled water; -Maintaining good habits to conserve water resources, such as doing laundry on full loads, and turning off the tap when applying soap during hand washing and bathing.
7. After the end of the activity, write the thoughts about the activity on the worksheet. 8. Finally, hand in the worksheet to the school, which will be delivered to WSD.
Please refer to WSD website: http://www.wsd.gov.hk/iep/hwa
Senior primary category Before conducting a Home Water Audit, senior primary students should first participate in and experience the School Water Audit activity. This will give them a better understanding of the signifi- cance and practice of the Home Water Audit. For more details, please refer to WSD website. (Website: http://www.wsd.gov.hk/iep/swa)
Activity details 1. Measure the water used in 3 - 5 seconds for the taps in the kitchen, bathroom, as well as
showerheads in the bathrooms;
2. Convert the data to water consumption in 1 minute, and compare it with the water con- sumption of different grades in the Water Effiency Labelling Scheme (WELS)*;
3. Check whether home appliances (e.g. washing machine and flow controller) are WELS-listed products;
4. Examine whether home appliances and pipes have any leaks; and 5. Summarise and actively review the daily water use habits at home.
Examining the daily water use habits at home
1. Find a previous water bill (or more than one) to review water consumption in the past. Write your account number onto the worksheet.
2. Plan water conservation measures at home. 3. Hand in the worksheet.
4. Review whether the water consumption is reduced because of water conservation measures.
* The voluntary Water Efficiency Labelling Scheme (WELS) launched in September 2009 is a water conservation initiative
of the HKSAR Government. WELS will cover the common types of plumbing fixtures and water-consuming appliances.
Products registered in WELS shall incorporate a water efficiency label that informs consumers of the level of water
consumption and water efficiency in order to help consumers to choose water-efficient products for water conservation.
WELS is being implemented in different phases.
The fewer the number of water droplet, the higher the water efficiency. Grade 1 is the most water saving.

Home Water Audit Home water saving tips
- Do not wash dishes or food I vegetables under a running tap. - Water plants with the same water used for washing vegetables and fruit. - Water plants in the early morning or evening.
- Only run washing machines or dishwashers on full loads.
- Turn off the tap while brushing teeth, soaping hands or shaving. - Take quick showers instead of baths. - Use water saving devices, e.g. water efficient showerhead I taps, dual flush water closet, and pay
attention to Water Efficiency Labels.
- Wash cars with a water bucket and towel instead of a hose.
- Fix dripping taps and water mains promptly.
- Do not play with water. - Check water meters or water bills regularly to spot out abnormal water consumption.

Education Camp on Water Conservation
Objective The Education Camp on Water Conservation is one of the activities in Phase Two of the Integrated Education Programme on Water Conservation, which includes several water resources- related activities to be held in the camp with worksheets. The activities are suggested for Primary 6 students in their education camps, and each activity should last no more than two hours. The objective is to enrich the knowledge about water resources and the concept of “Conserving water and treasuring water resources”, as well as nurture water saving habits among students.
Activity outcome Students: Learn to appreciate local water resources and the natural environment, grasp practical water conservation skills as well as learn to discuss questions in a simulated social environment.
Water conservation activities (1)Discover facilities related to water resources Within the campsite, identify facilities related to water resources and record them according to guidelines on the worksheets. Then discuss the use and quality of water resources related to these facilities. (2)Discover water saving devices in the camp Within the camp area- e.g. corridor, toilet pantry, launderette: Identify water saving devices, such as low-flow rate shower heads, low-flow rate sensor-type water taps, flow controllers, sensor-type urinals, dual flush water closets, water efficient washing machines and dishwasher, etc. (3)Water conservation competition Conduct a water conservation competition during shower period at night. Measure the total time taken for shower of all members in the group and calculate the average shower time per person to determine which group is the most water saving.

Activity guidelines
1. Activity will be conducted within the camp quarters excluding the rooftop. Teachers should divide students into different groups of 6-8, distribute worksheets and explain the steps. A designated time should be given and the whole activity should be finished within the given time.
2. Time should be reserved for assigning roles, including group leader, cartographer, recorder and timekeeper.
3. It is suggested that the students should first explore the camp quarters and look for water using facilities (e.g. drinking fountains, showerheads, water taps, washing mach- ines, etc.). All group members should discuss whether the facility is water saving and which type it belongs to (e.g. low-flow rate showerhead, low-flow rate sensor-type water taps, flow controllers, sensor-type urinals, dual flush water closets, water efficient wash- ing machines or dishwashers). If the same device is found more than once, no record- ing is needed.
4. Next, explore public area from the ground floor to upper floors, including corridors, bath- rooms, pantries and launderettes (not including rooftop, offices, staff and campers' rooms). Spot out any water using devices, then discuss whether these devices belong to water saving devices.
5. After completing the survey, summarise the types and quantity of water using facilities (including water saving devices) at the camp quarters. Regardless of whether the survey is completed, students should conduct their summary 10 minutes before the time limit ends.
6. Once the summary is completed, students should gather at the designated venue. Each group should spend no more than 3 minutes to report to the teacher, and tell whether these water using devices have contributed to water conservation.
7. After the presentation, teachers may summarise and give conclusion as well as individual comments. Teachers are recommended to end the activity by encouraging students to conserve water. Worksheets should be collected at the end.
Note: Teachers are suggested to explain to students on 'Water Saving Devices' and how these features can contribute to water conservation in daily life. [Reference materials: Teachers may refer to (1) Primary 3: Topic 14 'Water Saving Devices'; (2) School Talk series: Topic 5 'Water and Life']
