Students Dive Into Water Industry Careers

Sunwater recently welcomed four Year 11 students from Ayr State High School to their Clare depot as part of the school’s annual work experience program.

In support of the next generation of water industry professionals, each of the students gained valuable insights into different aspects of Sunwater’s operations under the guidance and supervision of experienced experts.

Jack, Callie and Lucas explored and worked alongside the maintenance and projects teams to assist with pump station maintenance, fabrication, mechanical checks, observe pump repairs and assist with field measurements whilst Ben toured the Burdekin Haughton Water Supply Scheme.

“The experience is helping shape their future careers while fostering a deeper understanding of the essential work we do at Sunwater,” shared a Sunwater spokesperson.
