Switch off Fortnight
Houston Primary School has
partnered with EDF Energy’s education programme The Pod to celebrate Switch Off
Fortnight this November. More than 1,700 schools across the UK are joining in
the action too. Our P7 Eco Representatives prepared a PowerPoint for the upper
Assembly to spread the news. They had some fantastic energy saving ideas, such
as 'Gadget Free Friday', and 'Turn off Tuesday'.
Eco Cluster Visit
Andrew Hay of Gryffe High
School, contacted Mrs McPherson to invite the Eco Representatives to their very
first joint Eco meeting. This was a great opportunity to share ideas and
expertise. We now plan to work in partnership with Houston's Bee Happy group to
develop a community garden and support with litter picking in the village. The
Bee Happy group have made Houston a beautiful place to live with all the lovely
flower beds and litter free streets.
