Switch Sticker Results

This week the Eco-Team judged your 'Switch Stickers' after school.  We would like to thank everyone who entered - they were all really good and we had a hard time deciding the winners.  After a long think we finally came to a conclusion and the winners for each class are:

Class R: Abby and Loren
Class 1: Amelia and Georgia
Class 2: Brandon and Tia
Class 3: Nathan (Thanks for the poster Abbie!)
Class 4: Ellie-May and Hollie
Class 5: Madihah and Jade
Class 6: Katie and Megan


Once again thank you for your great effort Kitwell, we really appreciate it :) We really wished we could have picked all of them!  Hopefully, you will see the winners stickers displayed around the school and on this blog shortly.

Now that we have chosen the stickers and that the whole school knows how to save energy, we will be checking the classrooms to see if your class has remembered to switch off the lights.  The Eco-Team will be auditing the classrooms at lunchtime.  Our records will show the 'Energy Saver of the Week', which will be announced in good work assembly. 

Remember the more energy we save the more money we will we have for resources!

Also this week Storm, Nasam, Mayci and Shelby have made Computer Monitor signs for each class.  The Computer Monitor has to turn off our class computers at the end of each day.

Remember to keep saving energy everyone!!

Here is a link to some energy saving games for you to play:

If you have any energy saving ideas theb talk to a member of the Eco-Team.

Switching On to Switching Off!

This week the Eco-team has been discussing our campaign ‘Switching On to Switching Off’. Our goal is to make sure the school saves energy by remembering to turn off the lights when we are not using that particular room.
In our meeting, this Thursday, the team designed Switch Stickers to go next to the light switches around school.
We have also sent out a letter and piece of paper to every member of our school to inform them about this. Everyone should try to create a ‘Switch Sticker’ design and hand it in to class teachers by 10th March 2010. The Eco-team will choose the best few to display around the school. Keep an eye on this blog for some designs from the Eco-team!
Keep an eye on this blog for your winning designs!!
