The Next Flag - Energy

Now that we have our first green flag, it is time to start working towards our second. This time the theme is Energy. At the same time, we will still be carrying on all our good work on litter and waste. so we are still going to :
REDUCE, RE-USE, RECYCLE!

But now it is time to start looking at our use of Energy in school. For us in Gortnamona, this means looking mainly at our electricity and oil consumption.
