Cifynydd Water Treatment Works

Today we went to visit Welsh Water's,  Water Treatment Works in Cilfynydd. We found out lots of information about recycling, reusing and reducing the amount of water and materials /  products that we use in every day life. Firstly, we took part in a hunt to find hidden materials within the grounds. 

Once we had found the items, a woolen sock, a cotton towel, an aluminium can, a plastic bottle, a leather shoe and a glass bottle we had to rank them in the order that they would decompose. How did this group do? Look below to find the correct answer.

This was our water saving challenge. Do you know that a leaking tap will leak up to 280 baths of water a year?
