Competition for primary schools to win free solar panels
Primary schools are being urged to take part in a competition to win solar panels, crowd-funded by Friends of the Earth supporters.
Pupils
are invited to submit creative entries, such as artwork, photos or
film, demonstrating why they’d love their school to be powered by
solar energy.
The
winning school, chosen by public vote at the start of the new year,
will receive a solar installation free of charge. The panels will
make thousands of pounds every year for the school – meaning more
to spend on playgrounds, libraries and trips.
T
he
competition is a part of Friends of the Earth’s RUN
ON SUN campaign,
which is supported by players of People’s Postcode lottery. The
campaign aims to make it easier for schools to benefit from solar
power.

Rachel
Fulcher of Suffolk Coastal Friends of the Earth said: ‘Being
powered by the sun provides a fantastic opportunity for local primary
schools to save thousands of pounds through clean energy. The
competition itself will encourage young people to learn about solar
power. Whether it’s your children’s school or the one you went
to years ago, nominate it for the chance to win – and be quick!’
