School turns off the power

Ettalong Public School students and staff participated in Earth Hour on Friday, March 24.

Relieving principal Ms Lynn Balfour said the school turned off as many electrical items as possible between 10:30am and 11:30am.

The aim was to "conserve power and raise awareness of the fragility of the Earth's resources.

"We experienced what it must have been like many, many years ago, working in the dark," she said.
