Where is all the rain?

 The early part of Autumn has been very dry in New Zealand.

Here in Wellington we've had our first rain in weeks. Our field is looking a bit dusty and Colonial Knob is now a drab brown.

Wellington has water restrictions in place.

What are you doing to save water?

What do you think you should you do when you see someone wasting water?

  2. hi miss,

    me and my mum save water by washing our car in the rain.we just use soap and a sponge and let the rain wash the soap of.if you see someone washing their car with a hose or you see sprinklers or even someone secretly watering their garden the go and tell your parents and they will sort it.

  4. hi Stephanie

    i think im saving water by not wasting it like not using the hose and getting water but not driking it.

    i think i should save even more water.

    if i see someone wasting water i would stop them and tell them whats going and why you shouldnt do that.

    We have been saving more water then we use to, because we got big bottles of spring water that we use for drinking water. And tap water is now used mostly for big dishes.

    I think I should try and collect rain water, so that we don't wast to much tap water. Plus it could be emergancy water.

  11. Hi Miss Thompson.

    I'm going to save water by not using as much water when taking showers.

    I think I should tell everyone to use less water.
