Depth Days

Depth Days

Depth Days are a unique opportunity for schools within the Goldenfields Water supply area to come together to experience the water processing system first-hand and relate it back to their HSC studies.

Our Depth Days are based on research into the curriculum and cover topics relating to HSC Chemistry, Investigating Science and Geography.  They are designed for senior secondary students and are held annually.

Depth Days cover a range of different activities including:

  • Seeing the water process in action - tour of the water treatment plant
  • Getting hands on with real-life experiments in the lab
  • Using the findings from the day to work on exercises relating to key HSC curriculum study topics

Depth Days are held at the Jugiong Water Treatment Plant and are free for all schools within the Goldenfields Water supply area to attend (schools must organise their own transport). 

The 2023 Depth Days were held in May.  Dates for 2024 will be announced early in 2024 but if you would like to register your school, please contact our Community Education and Engagement Officer on 0418 586 851 or email communityengagement@gwcc.nsw.gov.au
