Meet the Wonders of Water Van and Discovery Team
Our Wonders of Water Van and Discovery Team are excited to come to your next festival, market or gathering. Give your community the opportunity to explore water through interactive games and activities. We can help them understand how we make your water safe to drink, how cities around the world harvest their water resources, and how we recycle our water every day.

Most people are surprised to learn that 85% of Greater Sydney's water comes from rainfall. With a growing population and climate change, it's time to think about water differently.
Your community can:
- learn about the urban water cycle
- discover water-saving tips and recycled water options
- understand Sydney Water's future goals and how the community is affected.
