In partnership with the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District, The Gardens at Heather Farm will be scheduling all in classroom programs. Central San’s programs are provided free of charge for teachers in our sewer service area.  The goal is to help students think more critically about “what happens to our dirty water after it goes down the drain?”  Each of our programs are built upon relevant NGSS earth science, biological science, and physical science curriculum.

Pipe Protectors

Our TK-5th grade programs feature 3 different hands-on lessons: Toilet and Non-Toilet Paper, What Goes Down The Kitchen Sink, and Toot the Toilet.  Our programs are 1 hour long and are designed for 1 class at a time.  Please book a program for all students within a grade level and at least 2 programs per day are required.

Next Gen Sewer Science

Our 6th-12th grade programs feature 3 labs: Filter Lab, Bugs Lab, and Mystery Solutions.  Our programs are designed to take place over 3 class periods (55 minutes/day), however, we are flexible to fit the programs into your schedule as class timing and curriculum vary widely from school to school.
