Saving energy week 17th January Eco council have an assembly with ideas to reduce energy in school. Put up Eco posters around the school.
The whole school will target saving energy around the school. Turning lights off when not in a room. Turn iPads and laptops off when reach 100%. Turn switches off at night that don't need to be on. Remind teachers to turn off whiteboards when not in use. If it is a bright day do we need all the lights on? Turn classroom equipment off lunch time - fairy lights, Bee-bots. Ask the cook John can he reduce his energy use. Can we have part of the day we don't use energy?
Let's see if we can make a difference!
Activity description
Reducing your energy costs and carbon emissions involves careful planning. Having a stated goal is also a great way of staying focused on what you're doing. Plus meeting your target means something to celebrate - a great reason to hold a whole school assembly or talk about your fab Energy team work in the school newsletter!
When you set a target you'll get progress reports, suggestions of activities, and more detailed analysis focused on your energy reduction targets.
All you have to do is click on the set a target action prompt on the adult dashboard and have a think about what target is suggested for you. We always suggest a reduction of 5% to start with.
However you might have big ideas for how you can tackle energy waste at your school and want to aim for 10%. Or you might want to take baby steps to tackle old buildings, old equipment and lack of awareness. It's completely up to you.
Once you've set your target you'll update you on your progress month by month so make sure you check back at least once a term!
