6. Walumeda Wetland: Stormwater Awareness in Action

Every drop of water that runs off our streets, driveways, and rooftops eventually flows into our local creeks and wetlands. At Walumeda Wetland in West Pennant Hills, we’re working to raise awareness about how everyday stormwater runoff affects the health of Berowra Creek’s headwaters.

Listening to Our Community

So far, we’ve connected with residents through:

  • A community survey
  • An information display
  • Local outreach events

The feedback we received has given us valuable insight into how the community views water quality and stormwater issues.
Curious about what people had to say? Read the Walumeda Catchment Community Survey Report.

What’s Next?

Your input is helping shape the future of this project. We’re using what we’ve learned to:

  • Design more effective education campaigns
  • Encourage positive behaviour change
  • Support the long-term health of Berowra Creek, Walumeda Wetland, and the surrounding stormwater network

Together, we can protect our waterways—starting right here in our own backyards.
