Young St Joseph’s PS students from Eugowra NSW have developed an early flood warning system for Eugowra after unprecedented floods devastated their town in 2022.

They presented their project to expert adults from around the country at the Floodplain Management Australia national conference in Melbourne in May 2025.

Their inspiring video is such as great example of student-led inquiry-based practical learning, community collaboration and advocacy, innovation to create an early flood warning system and a powerful way for these students to alleviate some of the trauma they lived through.​
