To further promote the message of water conservation among primary school students, the WSD in March this year invited primary schools to join the "Water Conservation Ambassador Selection Scheme" to select and commend students who had achieved excellent results in water saving. These ambassadors will serve as role models to help promote water conservation among fellow students. After assessment of the data, students with a household per capita fresh water daily consumption at a low level were selected as "Water Conservation Ambassadors". The certificate presentation ceremony was held on 6 July 2010 at Youth Square, Chai Wan. About 500 students, parents and teachers attended the ceremony.
Acting Director of Water Supplies, Mr CHAN Kwong-wei; the Chairman of the Advisory Committee on the Quality of Water Supplies (ACQWS), Professor HO Kin-chung and the Chairperson of Working Group of Public Education of the ACQWS, Ms Nicole WONG, officiated at the certificate presentation ceremony. Certificates and badges were presented to the ambassadors while certificates of appreciation were presented to the participating schools. Professor Ho led the ambassadors to read a pledge that they would continue to try their best to save water in their daily life and remind their family members, schoolmates and friends to join in protecting the precious water resources on Earth.
