Achieving Net Zero has been featured in the latest Aberdeenshire Council Schools Newsletter 2024

​Achieving Net Zero has been featured in the Aberdeenshire Council Schools Newsletter which goes out to teaching staff across the region. The article asked for science teachers to get in touch if they would like to take part in testing the posters at their schools in the new year.

This led to poster packs being sent out to a selection of academies that asked to take part, so the posters could be shown in their schools.
