The Sholing Technology College

The World’s Smallest Water Museum

The project is about raising awareness about water conservation. The students wanted to show how a small change to behaviour can make a big difference to water usage and decided to design the World’s Smallest Water Museum in a portaloo, with a talking toilet seat and interactive sink, because it would fun and informative.

The design concept was the winning entry in the water design challenge and won £5000 pounds to build the WSWM. The students worked as consultants to a team of designers to realise their design. The WSWM has now been built and delivered to the school.

Reduce, Recycle, Reuse

After initial sharing of ideas and discussion we agreed to focus on Reduce, Recycle and Reuse for our project.

Although not a new area we were all concerned about the litter and the waste in and around our school and felt that it was an area in which we could make changes successfully.  We also knew that this was a project that we could undertake without needing a lot of funding and one where once the changes had been made they could be continued with and developed further.  We all wanted to see a litter free environment and be in one where we know as much as possible is being done to care for our wider environment.  We hoped to foster good practice for the future in all members of our school.
