We all know this. Hydration is crucial for student health, focus, and academic performance. Even mild dehydration can impact mood, memory, and concentration. Given this, easy access to fresh, clean drinking water is essential in schools. Yet for many students, outdated school fountains don’t meet their needs.
Surprise! Students Avoid Your School’s Fountain
Recent studies reveal a significant problem. An overwhelming 85% of students prefer bottled water. A staggering 30% never use school fountains. This highlights real concerns with the design and condition of many school fountains today. For students, these traditional fountains are not just inconvenient—they’re actively discouraging hydration.
What Students Need to Drink more Water
The solution is clear. Students - much like teachers - need fountains that provide clean, refreshing water with convenient, bottle refill options. We all have a lot on our minds. Life is busy. And the opportunity to find a better way to hydrate makes a meaningful difference to our well-being.
The Benefits of Better Hydration Stations
An better school fountain offers meaningful benefits for both students and schools:
Better Focus and Academic Success: Fresh water encourages hydration, boosting focus and well-being.
Positive Impact on Mood: Hydrated students are happier, less tired, and more engaged in learning.
Reduced Plastic Waste: Encouraging bottle refills reduces plastic waste, supporting environmental goals.
Hydration Stations with a Personal Touch
Modern stations aren’t just functional; they’re designed to reflect school pride. With customisable art panels like Civiq’s Aquafil stations, schools can integrate cultural or personalised artwork. This adds a unique visual appeal. These elements promote hydration and create a stronger school identity.
A Lasting Investment for Student Wellness
Upgrading outdated fountains to better hydration stations boosts student wellness, performance, and engagement. Proper hydration benefits students academically, socially, and emotionally, improving focus and mood. For school leaders, investing in durable, sustainable, student-friendly hydration stations is a powerful step towards a brighter future.
Hydration is so important. Why not make it better by design?
