We're encouraging East Gippsland's young people to become 'water heroes' by entering this year's National Water Week Poster Competition.

Last year, Mallacoota's Archie Browlie took out equal second place in the Grade 5-6 Category with his creative poster (below).

This year’s theme is ‘Water heroes: make every drop count’, encouraging children to explore ideas around the importance of saving water in a changing climate.

And, for the first time, the competition has extended to high school students, with Years 7 and 8 students able to enter. Entry is open to children from kindergarten to Year 8.

To enter or find out more, don your best silk cape and head to

Up, up and away ... entries close 11 September!

It’s World Environment Day!

This year, we’re celebrating by investing in a more sustainable water future for our community.

We’re building a Class A treatment plant that will supply recycled water to recreational facilities helping reduce the use of our precious drinking water and supporting smarter water use. Funded by DEECA and supported by East Gippsland Shire Council through the Integrated Water Management Strategic Directions Statement, the project is on track for completion in late 2026.

Projects like this are key to strengthening climate resilience and securing our communities water future.
