About
A fun group challenge for families with primary school age children.
Around 71% of Planet Earth is covered in water. Our oceans are polluted by humans with 88% polluted by plastic, with oil spills causing further damage.
Can you work together as a team to clean up the water tanks? Devise a way to remove the oil and plastic to protect the biodiversity of our waters and keep our waters clean!
