This afternoon we were visited by Louise, who came to talk to us about water. We learnt about  the water cycle, how we use water in our homes and what United Utilities do to make sure we have a constant supply of clean water to use. We also learnt how they treat our dirty water before it goes back into rivers or the sea.

We were each challenged to think of a way we can reduce the amount of water we use in our homes. We also did an experiment to find out how putting certain things down the toilet can cause problems in water pipes and sewers.
