Producing and distributing drinking water: not so easy!
In Eau secours des Eauvillois, your students reproduce in the laboratory each of the steps required to transform raw water into drinking water. Next, participants design a distribution and wastewater collection network, taking into account the many constraints that are unavoidable here, as in your neighborhood. A fun and educational way to discover your water!
C.I.EAU encourages teachers to take part in the complete activity, including the “Production of drinking water” and “Distribution of drinking water” parts. However, it is also possible to participate in only one or the other of these two parts of the activity. Select the right option when booking.
Eauvillois’ Water to the Rescue animation is also available in a mobile version! A science animator can come to your school, or you can rent a simulator and run the activity yourself. The mobile option is available for drinking water production only. Select the right option when booking.
The activity takes place every day from Monday to Friday.
A full activity at C.I.EAU lasts between 5 hours and 5 hours 30 minutes, while a half-activity lasts between 2 hours and 2 hours 30 minutes. The schedule varies according to the number of groups and the arrival times of each school. In-school animation (mobile version) lasts 1 hour 30 minutes.
Two groups of 30 students maximum, divided into seven teams.
The C.I.EAU can accommodate up to 60 children simultaneously for this activity. Two groups are then formed and directed towards two different sub-activities. Halfway through, the groups are interchanged so that all students experience both the simulations and the Lab’eau activities.
