WUQWATR is passionate about educating youth on the importance of watersheds and water conservation. We’ve created the WUQWATR Kids Club to share some fun learning experiences with the youngest residents of our watershed. Check back monthly for new activities and learning opportunities!
Annual Poster Contest
The Wascana & Upper Qu’Appelle Watersheds Association Taking Responsibility, Inc. (WUQWATR) conducts a Poster Contest each year.
The theme for 2023 once again was Wetlands and Wildlife.
The 11 watershed stewardship groups in the province had conducted an annual art contest in previous years with their winners advancing to the provincial championship.
Although the provincial contest did not take place in 2023 WUQWATR continued to hold our own contest.
Thomas Tran, a student at Ecole Centennial School in Regina, won the Grade 3-4 division of WUQWATR’s annual poster contest with this submission:
He earned a Pizza Party for his class during the final week of their school year!
Noah Klassen won the Grade 5-6 division with this entry.
Noah earned his class at Ecole W.S. Hawrylak in Regina a Pizza Party too!
In 2022, Rylee Cherepuschak of William Derby School in Strasbourg won the Grade 5/6 category of the WUQWATR watershed poster contest and the provincial competition! This is her winning entry:
Part of the prize for winning the Grade 5/6 division of the provincial contest was a pizza party for her entire class!
