Thank you Crofton Downs Primary School :)

One of the most wonderful surprises for Ghost Fishing is when the kids we have been to visit and talk to about how cool the creatures are in our oceans send us notes like this - here is some of the artwork we received in the mail from the kids.

There are pictures of smiling turtles as we talked about them and the problems with plastic bags. Thank you so much to Crofton Downs Primary School and Gill Ackley and teachers.

A wonderful surprise and great images and memories.

The Team from Wellington Water

Given Auckland’s recent news around their low water supply, we thought we’d share how we’re tracking.

This graph shows our water use from June 5 – July 4 over the past 3 years. With the green line showing the maximum target of what we can comfortably supply - we need to keep below this … View moreGiven Auckland’s recent news around their low water supply, we thought we’d share how we’re tracking.

This graph shows our water use from June 5 – July 4 over the past 3 years. With the green line showing the maximum target of what we can comfortably supply - we need to keep below this line!

As you can see our use is much higher than in the past couple of years, and if we have a really dry spring we could need some serious water restrictions in summer.

Here are some ways to #loveeverydrop💙
- Shorten your showers (even cutting back by 1 minute can save up to 18 litres!) 🚿
- Turn off the tap when shaving or brushing your teeth
- Only put full loads of washing on at a time 👕👖
- Share your water saving tips with friends and family!
