As the first milestone in reducing our carbon footprint, we are excited to announce that we have become one of the first schools in Victoria to procure our energy needs from 100% renewable sources.
While 48% of our total energy consumption already comes from our solar panels, we now source the balance of our needs from wind and solar farms in south-eastern Australia.
Our investment in the future is not skin deep – it is in the bones of the School. At our core, our mission is to educate committed citizens of the future who are passionate about the problems facing our world, instilling them with the necessary skills to make a positive change. Attaining our 100% renewable energy goal is the first step on this journey.
"We have learned that we can make small changes, and that those changes accumulate to make a big difference. This is one aspect of a multifaceted approach to get to our target of zero emissions by 2030." Dr Paul Hicks, Headmaster
