Pat from Environment Southland came to talk to us about the pollution that can enter the Mataura River.
We learnt that pollution can enter the river from many sources like :- Oil from cars
- Animal and human faeces
- Blood and guts from the freezing works
- Fertiliser and poison from farms
- Soil
How to keep our river clean
- Keep animals away from the rivers by putting up fences
- Drain away pollution to prevent it reaching the waterways
What an interesting lesson Room 5 - a great way to learn about how our waterways become polluted.
