Take the Eco challenge

Can you reduce energy?

Take a look at how much energy Hagbourne School managed to save

Play energy police!  If you notice that energy is wasted, be active at once!

We challenge all schools to see how much they can conserve energy over 2 weeks. 

  • Print out the graph below and write down your meter readings on the first week.

  • The second week try to conserve energy. Read our Eco-school pages for advice. 

  • The third week try even harder to reduce how much energy you use.

  • Calculate how much energy you have saved in week two and three as a percentage of your week one readings.

  • Email us from your school office email address -so we can check it's genuine and we will put the results on this page for the world to see!

Watch the electric meter every day at the same time! Fill in the daily electrical consumption (kw/h)!
