Competition for energy conservation at Meissen schools - winning participants announced
In the heart of Saxony, the city of Meissen and its utilities recently organised an energy-saving competition for schools within the city. The aim was to encourage young minds to think creatively about energy conservation.
After much anticipation, the results are in, and the winners have been announced. The Free Werkschule Meißen emerged victorious, taking home a prize of 2,000 euros for their impressive efforts.
The Arita - Grundschule came in third place, securing a prize of 800 euros. Meanwhile, the Kalkbergschule Meißen and three other schools—the Questenberg - Grundschule, the Pestalozzi - Oberschule, and the Triebischtal - Oberschule—each finished in fourth to sixth place, earning them a prize of 400 euros each.
