A visit to Lorne Primary was the first school visit for a few of the Leith Academy peer educators. The whole school got a chance to take part in the Powerpod activities. p5s-p7s learnt about solar, wind & making their own power on the 22nd, with a number of p7s taking part in a peer education session so they could run the workshops the next day.
Bouts of rain were dealt with by a quick removal operation inside to the classrooms!
On the Thursday, a different group of peer educators from Leith Academy and Drummond ran the workshops for the p1s-p4s, with assistance from the Lorne Primary p7s. Solar popcorn was a big hit with all the groups! The bike was tested out many times; even a few of the teachers managed to generate the power for a lightbulb...
Feedback from the teachers was very positive: "the peer educators were so professional" "one of the peer educator pairs had me in stitches! They were such a comedy duo" "Thank you! The peer educators were just fantastic - such excellent representatives of Edinburgh's young people"
