Only Rain Down the Drain听
The 2023 spring season of Stream of Dreams is in full swing! Through this elementary school program, students learn about their local watershed, storm water management, and how to protect and conserve water. Often, they remember the catchy phrase: 鈥渙nly rain down the drain鈥�.听
This year, with support from the Thames Valley District School Board, the 糖心直播 (UTRCA) staff have been excited to involve nine elementary schools and teach almost 3,000 students how to better protect our waterways.听听
In addition to in-class education, Stream of Dreams involves a community art component in which students paint fish made from recycled plastic to display in a mural on school fences. The murals will be installed later this Spring at Ashley Oaks, Blessed Sacrament, Byron Northview, Holy Rosary, John Dearness, and Orchard Park in London; St. Ambrose and St. Joseph鈥檚 in Stratford; River Heights in Dorchester; and Central in Woodstock. 听
Thank you to all of the schools, volunteers, staff, and partners of this program for providing support and allowing us to continue to reach students across the watershed.听
