Our schools ground in the south side which is very sunny, if we plant decidous trees it will be green in the summers and will make the surroundings cool. In winter the leaves of the decidous tree will fall which will let the sunlight enter the classes. https://padlet.com/kamalpreet_b/2r27kpm29en8/wish/144811353 -ARAV

Classrooms use a lot of energy in lighting. When you are out of the room make sure the lights are switched off. You can often leave the lights off during the day if there is enough natural light through the windows or you are doing an activity that does require the extra lighting, such as story time. If you have DVD players or computers in the room make sure they are completely turned off when not in use.
