Willingdon School

🌎Grade 6 were delighted to receive an incredible donation of a solar panel kit ⚡️with Bluetooth enabled battery and inverter systems from Bright Diamond Consulting, a sustainable energy consulting group founded and run by our very own Lucas Reindler, parent of Livi, in Grade 6 and alumnae Alex, now in Grade 8!

Students have been learning about Greenhouse gasses and climate change in science class, and have brainstormed ways to reduce our ecological footprint, so exploring practical renewable energy solutions was timely!

Dr. Kat will continue the exploration as we connect to the solar panel kit with Bluetooth and track the electricity being generated and stored in real time. With the inverter that Lucas also provided we can power different items to witness how energy that has been produced can be utilized - today we charge a cell phone and powered an electric fan!

We love our Willingdon community and the rich learning experiences that they bring to life, thank you Bright Diamond Consulting and Lucas!
