The timber units at the doors to the front of the school were also insulated. All this work took place before the heating system installed in 1971 was replaced in the first three months of 2010.
However to improve the efficiency of the school even further the pupils came up with the idea of "Energy Officers." Ms. McGovern's class overlook this simple scheme everyday. Wearing their bright yellow tee-shirts, generously supplied by the Parents' Association, four pupils do a rapid tour of the school at the start and end of each break. Their job is simple...turn off any lights left on by accident and ensure that all the doors are to the outside of the school are closed. This simple job keeps the electricity bill down while preventing vlauable heat loss from the school to the atmosphere.
