eco-friendly
school?

2. Introduction
There are some measures for to turn any school on an eco-friendly
school. Those are included into this different aspects of the ecology:
• The energetic efficiency
• Saving water
• Greener transport
• To have fresh food
3. Insulate with mineral wool
• The mineral wool is a fiber material used for the thermal insulation in
most of buildings made actually. We can also inject it into the walls of an
ancient building. It help us to save thirty percent calefaction, so it ‘s
ecological and cheaper, because we have to pay a thirty percent less.
4. Insulate with mineral wool
• This method is also used on schools’ buildings. For example, the
public school José María Pereda of Madrid has injected mineral wool
into its walls
5. The windows do not fit well and
that causes a loss of heat that
forces the children to
continue the warm clothing
inside the class
This is in Príncipe de Asturias
de Tapia
6. The infrared sensor is
able to detect when there
is presence in the class.
This is in Colegio Sagrado
Corazón Recoleta
7. Solar Panels
• In the Solar School system the school remains connected to the normal electricity supply and is called a "grid tied" or "grid
interactive" system. At times, the PV Solar System may generate more power than is being used by the school, which is then
fed back into the electricity grid.
• There are several different sizes and types of systems installed across Australian schools. Be sure to check the Solar System
page for each school before comparing the generation between systems.
• Environmental and Educational Benefits:
• "free" electricity for the school
• a 2 kV system displaces approx 2.9 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions from non renewable energy sources
• the PV system works silently and produces no pollution
• schools require electricity during daylight hours, which is when solar power is generated
8. C.P Iturrama ( Pamplona)
Have 24 solar panels to produce electricity
9. Rainwater harvesting
• Its uses include water for gardens, and
indoor heating of houses, etc. Collected
water can also be used as drinking
water, long-term storage and for other
purposes, such as recharging aquifers.
For the eco-orchard.
11. Plastic bottles in tanks
• The system is very simple, only requires dismantling the tank and put
inside a plastic bottle filled with water, then we will save the volume of
water corresponding to the volume of the bottle, that is if we put a half
liter, we save half a liter By discharge, the ideal would be to put a liter and
a half if it does not enter we can put two of half a liter or some other
object that fits and moves the volume of water that we want.
12. Adjustable heating
• It offers hot water and heating with a common temperature in the rooms,
adjustable by means of a centralized thermostat and in each room by means of the
thermostatic keys of the radiators. It has installation costs and needs maintenance,
but together with the electrical emitters is the system that consumes the least, from
the economic point of view .
13. Sing Yin High School in Hong Kong
Is considered the most ecological at the international level
This school has an adjustable heating system controlled by motion sensors. According to the
number of people regulates the heating of the room, while controlling the lights of the classroom.
.
14. SCHOOLS IN SOUTH AMERICA
With some 3,500 bottles, cisterns have also been built in schools in low-income communities.The
initiative that emerged seven years ago in Honduras, has already spread in Bolivia, Brazil,
Argentina and Colombia
15. Create a great bike parking
• The bike is most ecological mean of transport and also the cheapest,
behind walk of course. Ride a bike is also very good for our health,
but some schools don’t have enough stands or parking for those. The
first way for promote bike’s use is solve this problem.
16. Organize bike-pools
• A bike-pool is an association of people that tries to improve the
bike’s use and to teach to the society the bike’s benefits. Those also
search better installations for the bikes, like bike paths… There are
bike pools in universities, offices and schools too. On those, the
fathers organize all with help of schools’ direction, so all save money
and time.
17. The bike like mean of transport.
• The public school Montserrat of Madrid has join two previous
measures. So, the schol has made a parking for fifty bikes and the
fathers and classmates have organized a bike pool.
18. 1. The responsibility of students to cultivate
their own food provides them with illusion
and learning
It promotes healthy and balanced nutrition,
without the use of chemicals.
2. It promotes the cultivation of native products
and according to the time of year.
3. Students work and play in a natural space,
interacting with their nearest environment
4. Values of respect, conservation and care of
nature, the environment and the
environment are incorporated.
