Lappeenranta basic education’s Uniori (Etusivu - Lappeenranta Junior University -https://www.uniori.fi/ ) study module has been updated to include the Clean Water - study module for third graders (3. luokka - Lappeenranta Junior University).

The Clean Water module consists of a water day and tasks. The learning module is implemented in schools during the fall semester.
