Save electricity!

Don't leave your electronic devices - TV sets, computers, DVD's - on stand-by mode. Switch them off completely and you will save about 10 % of your electricity bill. Buy energy-saving light bulbs and "A"-labelled household appliances.

Invest in reusable shopping bags

Minimize water consumption.

Turn off unnecessary lights.

Go paperless. Print on both sides of the paper. We college students often use huge amounts of paper, whether it is for home works, essays, reports or tests. As most know, paper comes from trees and should therefore be consumed with moderation.

Replace old light bulbs with LED’s

Avoid rinsing the dishes

Do not pre-heat the oven

It is common knowledge, but everyone still needs to do better in terms of shutting the water tap when brushing their teeth. This is an example of a completely unnecessary waste of resources.

Wear warm clothes in winter instead of using a heater;

Dry clothes by line instead of using the dryer;

Shut off  the computer when not in use;

Erasmus plus in the Czech school

Students are hard-working

First we had to find out much information about the children’s rights. Our eight-formers woked in civics lessons. They searched information, created posters and discussed with their teachers. The posters are published on a wallpaper so that everybody can read them.

Parents are also involved

Before the meeting in France, one of our student‘s father has let us printed a special T-shirts just for our team. Students and teachers were really amazed. We have represented our country at the meeting also with original and beautiful Erasmus plus T-shirts.
