Sydney Water Competition Finalists

Sydney water competition finalists

Sydney Water reached out to schools across Sydney asking Year 7 & 8 students to use their creative skills to persuade people to choose tap water over bottled water and help reduce plastic waste.

We are excited to announce that 8H English students have been selected as a finalist in the Sydney Water short film competition Brand without a Bottle!

On the 6th of August, a professional film crew worked with students in bringing their ad for Sydney Tap Water to life.  Sydney Water will also be installing a water re-fill station for the school as a prize for students making the finalist list.

The short film will be launched online for voting. Stay tuned for details on how to help our school win!

What students said:

We put a lot of work into making this short advertisement. We built the sets, recorded our voices and learnt puppetry for the shoot."  - Aidan Campbell 

"We put a lot of work into making everything to make the perfect ad. It turned out better than we all thought it would" - Olivia Miles

What teachers said:

"It was fantastic to see the students' ideas come to life within a professional film setting. They were lucky enough to have representatives from NIDA and Sydney Water assist and educate them about the workings of film." - Ms Bayly
