We have been reading about how people in other countries use water. The countries we were reading about were Ethiopia, Israel and Australia. Here are some of the things we found out:
"In Ethiopia people use a special stick to brush their teeth." - Jacob
"In Australia they get their water from a network of pipes from several dams. They get their water out of the tap like we do in New Zealand." - Amelia
"In Australia, some people shower for only 4 minutes to save water." - Flynn
"In Israel they have special attachments on their taps to add air to the water so it goes further." - Noah
"For some people in Ethiopia they have to walk 1 and a half hours to get to their waterhole. This means kids would have to miss out on school just to get water. They do this twice a day." - Ruma Waru
"In Ethiopia, most people don't have showers, they wash themselves with a cloth." - Connor
"In Israel they don't fill the sink when they wash their dishes, they rinse them then, scrub them with detergent and then rinse them again. They do this to save water." - Josephine
"In Ethiopia, they put a little bit of cow's milk in their drinking water so it goes further." - Dylan C.
