This week to help celebrate National Water Week 2025, we again hosted our annual poster competition.

This year’s theme was Water Heroes: Save Every Drop! It aimed to reflect on the essential role water plays in our lives and the importance of protecting this vital resource for a sustainable future.

More than 650 students from 15 schools from all across the region entered the competition this year.

We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who entered as well as all of the parents, caregivers and teachers who helped facilitate their work.

The competition is hosted in partnership with Southern Rural Water and the Glenelg Hopkins Catchment Management Authority.

The 2025 winners!

Congratulations to this year’s winners and a special mention for our two state winners Hugh and Archie. Archie has also been named the winner of the Years 1-2 category of the national competition!
