Last year you used 15,000 kWh of gas and 5,900 kWh of electricity in the Spring half term 2024 holidays. Turn off your heating, hot water and electrical appliances to save around £2,500 this year. 

Gas use in the Xmas 2024/2025 holidays has increased by 42% compared to Xmas 2023/2024. 

Between Saturday 21 Dec 2024 and Sunday 5 Jan 2025 you used 36,000 kWh of gas at a cost of £2,300. Adjusting for changes in outside temperature, this is still an increase of 11,000 kWh and 1,900 kg CO2. Ask the school site manager to check the heating controls to reduce gas use during the school holidays.
