On our travels this week in Earlsfield, London we happened across a great organic market housed in a local primary school. We have seen Novus external drinking water fountains before through a supplier but had never seen one installed. Unfortunately they had been slightly neglected but they did bring a smile to our faces.

The design approach taken by Novus was very innovative at their time of launch and the method of dispensing the water has significant advantages for children of a primary school age.

One thing that is clear, is that primary schools need to ensure they have modern, clean and useable school drinking fountains. If children do not have access to clean drinking water at all times, there is a serious lack of duty of care that lies with the school and its decision makers. Children need up to eight glasses of water a day to keep hydrated and alert. This is especially important for their schooling years as they are still developing and learning.

It is vital schools install an adequate amount of drinking water fountains on the school grounds so that every child has easy access to drinking water throughout the day. Children should also be educated on the health benefits of water and be encouraged to drink from the water fountain instead of buying softdrinks and other sugary drinks.

If you think your school needs to upgrade their drinking water fountains, feel free to contact us on 0845 500 4455 and we will be more than happy to provide a free site survery to assess your options.

School drinking fountains need to be a suitable height for the children to reach, they also need have an easy access button for them to push to get the water out of the fountain. The fountain would also need to be a robust make as it will no doubt get a beating from all those kids.

If you were looking for an office water fountain you would probably go for a taller model with an element of sophistication about it, especially if it’s the water fountain you want in your reception area.

Then if you were looking for an outdoor drinking water fountain you could probably go for a concrete model, something that could withstand the elements of the outdoors. It would need to be robust as well and probably of a height that would be easy for children to reach as well as adults. Whatever your situation DrinkingWaterFountains.co.uk has got the right water fountain for you.

Encouraging a healthy lifestyle is one of the key topics in schools at the moment, with childhood obesity on the rise, it’s never been more important to teach children about health and eating well. Teaching kids about the health benefits of water can be easily done especially with the dominance of school drinking fountains around the classrooms and halls.

Having water fountains and encouraging children to drink from them instead of having sugary drinks will help decrease obesity levels and increase awareness of healthy living. It’s also vital to teach children about dehydration and the effects it can have such as headaches, drowsiness and even loss of conscienceness.

Teaching them to drink out of the school drinking fountains regularly and often will help keep them hydrated, hydrated and happy. It’s also vital to ensure all the water fountains at the school are maintained to avoid bacteria contamination. The fountains will need to be sanitised regularly to keep them clean.

The latest news story was from Oregan in the United States where a student was so adamant that the school drinking fountains were more dirty than the school toilets that he conducted a series of tests to prove his theory correct. For his English assignment he collected swabs from four of the school’s water fountains and one of the toilets to test the bacteria content. The tests came back in favour of the toilet water, with all results from the water fountains coming back infused with bacteria.  

His classmates and teachers were shocked at the results and it quickly spurred on the decision makers in the school to replace the old water fountains with sparkling new ones which will be sanitised on a much more regular basis. Now the results of this test would never come back in favour of the toilet water in any of the schools around here, if you keep your water fountains sanitised regularly you will never have this problem.

If you know your school is in dire need of a new drinking fountain please feel free to contact Drinking Water Fountains and they will be more than happy to provide you with bacteria free fountains for your school!
