• What is a slogan?
• A slogan is a phrase, a short sentence, a
  headline or a dictum, which, intentionally or
  unintentionally, amounts to an appeal to the
  person who is exposed to it to buy some article,
  to revive or strengthen an already
  well-established stereotype, to accept a new
  idea, or to undertake some action. Shortly it
  implies a value judgment.

• Why we chose to organise
• a slogan competition?
• Our aim is to increase the awareness of the
  importance water preservation and clean water. We
  chose to organise a slogan competition, because
  we think a slogan is the easiest way to draw
  peoples attention to our subject. Also it is
  effective because it doesnt require much time
  and concentration to read or understand it.

How To Act Upon The SlogansAt our
schoolLearning to save water can start at any
age and children and teachers can make a big
difference by being careful with water while at
school. Our aim should be to educate the
community about how important water is and how we
can save it. So heres some ideas that can be
used by everyone at our schools.
5
Ideas for everyoneEveryone going to school can
save water we dont have to be the principal or
even a teacher to find ways not to waste water.
Heres some ideas that every student and teacher
can use Save water from the drinking taps.
Place ice cream containers under the water
fountains/bubblers and pour excess water on the
garden. Turn taps off after washing
hands. Catch rain water. Place containers
outside when it rains and collect the water to
put on the garden. Wash paint brushes in a
bucket or ice cream container dont use running
water Bring a water bottle to school. At the
end of the day, any left-over water can be poured
on the garden. Create colourful and fun posters
on water education. Tell someone when we see a
leak a leaking tap, bubbler or toilet wastes a
lot of water getting a leak fixed quickly will
save a lot of water and money. Even a bubbler
that is dribbling water wastes a lot of precious
water during a day.

and techniques to measure rainfall in our local
area, carry out a water audit at our school, or
understand the amount of water used in our local
region get students to monitor water use at home
- read the meter daily, determine how much water
is used per person in the household and set
percentages for improvement - most improved could
win a prize at the end of a month / term / year

 Science Study the water cycle, test water
quality in our local area (comparing different
land uses upstream of various locations),
understand the importance of water for life and
how plants and animals adapt to different water
conditions (aquatic to arid), understand the role
of water in geological formations or atmospheric
conditions Studies of Society and Environment
Investigate the land use within the local region,
the impacts these have on water conditions and
usage, and how these have changed over
time Technology Investigate the development of
water supply and water treatment in our local

Ideas for principalsPrincipals have a lot of
responsibility in managing school resources,
making sure all taps, toilets and sinks work
correctly and the school is safe for children to
use. Heres some important tips for principals
to remember when managing the school and its

to reduce flow through taps. Consider
installing rainwater tanks. Use rainwater to
flush toilets or for watering the garden.

leaking taps, bubblers or toilets as soon as
possible.
