Water is Life

When you turn on the tap and clean water comes out, have you ever wondered where that water came from? In this program, students discover how water, as a natural resource and sustainer of life, was used and managed by Indigenous, settlers, and Calgarians in the past. Explore the diverse ecosystem of the Bissett Wetlands and the many vital functions wetlands have performed and continue to do today. Become forward thinkers for our city as we discuss how human activities and natural processes change and shape our environment and how water resources need to be managed respectfully, all while contemplating that we as individuals have a role to play in environmental conservation.
