The installation of our solar panels on the roof of our main school building is now complete. By clicking here you will be able to view our green and black data usage.

National Solar Schools Program

In 2012 we received a $50,000 grant through the National Solar Schools Program that enabled us to purchase and install a 15kw solar panel system.

National Solar Schools Program

 

Over $217 million has been provided to 5,310 schools (or almost 60 per cent of all Australian schools) to install renewable energy systems, rainwater tanks and a range energy efficiency measures.

The solar power systems already installed are producing enough electricity to power the equivalent of 4,600 average households every day.

The funding has helped to educate students about renewable energy and energy efficiency, and that everyday actions can prevent the production of millions of tonnes of carbon pollution.
