We went to the energy saving meeting with other DRET Schools and looked at different ways to save energy. During Energy saving week Eco Council members lead an assembly on how we can save energy around school, especially in our classroom. Eco Council completes weekly checks to ensure we are turning off lights, monitors etc
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!
