Waterwatch Northern Adelaide and Barossa

Originally an initiative of the City of Salisbury, Waterwatch began in 1995, with 3 schools involved. In 1998, a strong partnership was formed with what is now the AMLRNRM Board, which enabled the program to be expanded across the Northern Adelaide and Barossa region.

During 2007, we will offer programs from The Watershed, a Regional Sustainability Centre owned by the City of Salisbury and located at Greenfields Wetlands. This will allow us to provide more resources and assistance to schools, community groups and the wider community.

For this new year, we are looking forward to increasing the capacity of our school support program and developing further our biological monitoring of macroinvertebrates and fish. Here's hoping the drought breaks so we can do this!

Catchments in our sub-region:

• Dry Creek
  
• Gawler (North & South Para Rivers)
  
• Little Para River
