Chailey School
is taking part in Switch Off Fortnight 2013 and saving energy!
Switch-Off Fortnight has been organised by
EDF Energy’s national education programme, the Pod, to encourage schools to
reduce their energy consumption and inspire families and friends to adopt the same good energy habits. The
campaign runs from Monday, November 18th to Sunday, December 1st and schools across the country are
taking part.
The campaign will focus on the ‘take it home’
message, encouraging pupils to take their awareness of energy saving into their
homes, to inspire families and friends to adopt the same good energy
habits. Mr Cossutta, our Eco
Co-ordinator, will be challenging the Year
7 students to be ‘energy secret agents’ who will be on a ‘secret mission’ to audit
the energy wastage in their households, from appliances on standby to lights
left on and talking with their family members about why it is important to save energy – not only will it help reduce carbon
emissions but help save money on energy bills.
They will be reporting back their
findings so you have been warned!!!!!
