Last week Julian came to the school to give the pupils a lesson on solar energy and wind energy. She demonstrated the solar power light and how to use it. You simply connect the light and the solar panel and put it where the light would shine. Tom Buckley and Thomas Morgans won a VillageBoom lamp for creating the best green rap.
In Africa lots of people buy these lamps. It enables them to work later, stay up later and do things that they would not normally be able to do. The children get to pay for the lamps in small amounts through school.
On our green school notice board we have one of the lamps lighting up our fabulous energy notice board.
