Event details
Not able to attend the STEMtastic Community Open Day at the Western Treatment Plant as part of National Science Week?
We’ve got you covered!
Join us on an online virtual tour of this amazing site, discover the largest sewage treatment plant in Melbourne and see how our waste is turned into reusable resources and clean, recycled water.
Explore where some of this water feeds into the vast, Ramsar-listed wetland here, which is home to an amazing array of birds and animals, and where endangered species survive.
With a Q&A available at the end of the Tour, you’ll leave with a greater understanding of the science and innovation that happens onsite, as well as an appreciation of the Western Treatment Plant as an incredibly unique place of beauty and biodiversity.
