Education Centre

Our Education Centre provides learning resources for students, teachers and members of the community.

You can access fact sheets, videos and lesson plans that can be used to talk about waterways and water safety with children and students from Prep through to Year 12. The resources can be used at home or at school.

Water safety education program

Since 2023 Sunwater has delivered its water safety education program in more than 50 schools, reaching over 3000 regional Queensland prep and primary school students. 

The program is designed to increase awareness and improve safety around dams, weirs and channels in regional communities. Presentations are supported with learning activities and follow-up resources for teachers. The program is aligned to the science, geography, and health and PE learning areas within the Australian Curriculum and is tailored to each local area we visit.

Sunwater’s “Live Dangerlessly” campaign uses humour and a rock-inspired attitude to show that following warning signs is the ultimate smart move. Focused on reducing risky behaviours like trespassing near dams and weirs, it reminds visitors that the best way to enjoy Queensland’s waterways is to stay 200 metres from dams and weirs and follow the warning signs.
