Educational activity on energy saving and renewable energy resources

A series of presentations and a very interesting educational activity on energy saving and renewable energy resources were organized at the amphitheatre of the school in which Ms Giannouli and Ms Derveni of the Public Power Corporation SA, Mr Ktenidis of the University of West Attica and Ms Mavrou and Vezyrgianni from the Centre for Renewable Energy Sources and Saving (CRES) provided valuable insight on the subject. In the framework of CCR, Ralleio Lykeio worked with the Special Junior and Senior High School of Ilioupolis for teenagers with special needs. Two such students, accompanied by their teacher Mr Prasinos, attended the activity and participated in the art exhibition with their creations from recyclable materials. They received a warm applause from everybody in the amphitheatre as they made us realize once more that when people of different skills join forces, they function as role models for coexistence in the civil society.
