Wastewater education

Our wastewater system is essential for protecting public health and the environment and we all play a role in managing it responsibly.

Our Education Team provides engaging programs and resources to raise awareness about water sustainability and encourage responsible water use across all ages.

Find out how we’re supporting schools, educators, and community members to foster lifelong appreciation for water.

Visit the ConnectED PMH education platform for tools and resources to help build a water-wise community.

Wipes block pipes

The Wipes Block Pipes campaign educates the community on what should and should not be flushed, drawing attention to misleading marketing labels and highlighting the financial and environmental impacts of flushing inappropriate items.

These include costly household plumbing repairs, environmental harm, and added strain on Council’s wastewater facilities.
