Educational Rainwater Harvesting System
Our full educational system includes the complete Stormsaver rainwater harvesting system with underground storage tanks, pumps, multi-stage filtration and header tank. It can be used to supply all non-potable uses within a school or educational establishment.
This system not only offers schools substantial savings on their utility bills but also brings the subject of conservation and the environment to life.
Stormsaver Education Pack
At Stormsaver, we appreciate the importance of educating future generations about water conservation and sustainable development. This is why we have developed a unique and comprehensive education pack, which we offer to schools that feature a Stormsaver rainwater harvesting system. Designed to fit with the National Curriculum the pack is an engaging and useful learning aid.
Developed with support from local authorities and primary school teachers, the Education Pack is aimed at Key Stage 2 pupils. However, many of the activities are also useful for Key Stages 1 and 3 and even youth clubs.
There are two parts to Stormsaver’s education pack: the monitoring unit and the educational activities book.
The educational monitoring unit allows everyone at the school to see the building’s daily rainwater usage, the total rainwater usage since commissioning and the total mains water usage since commissioning.
This information provides a great visual display for children, staff, parents and governors about the school’s achievements in water conservation. It is also useful for school projects or as a learning tool for other community groups that use the school building.
Educational Activities Book
The core of our education pack is our exclusive 100 page book. ‘Molly Monsoon’ guides children and teachers through a range of topics from water conservation, sources of water and the value of rainwater through to how rainwater harvesting works and how to use the education monitoring unit.
The activities book is full of information sheets, quizzes, activities and comprehensive teachers’ notes that reference everything to the National Curriculum.
National Curriculum
The activities book includes information on key skills, numeracy, literacy, education for sustainable development and other core subjects including mathematics, science and English.
There are even guidance notes on how long each activity should last and homework suggestions.
Flexibility
The activities have been developed so that teachers can adapt them to their own teaching styles. The pack can be incorporated into existing teaching methods or used to create new lesson plans.
