Register for the Climate Week Challenge – a fun, free and easy-to-organise event to enable your school to take part in Climate Week 2013. Climate Week is Britain’s biggest climate change campaign.

During the week of 4-10 March 2013, thousands of events and activities planned by organisations from every part of society will showcase real, practical ways to combat climate change.

The Climate Week Challenge can be held on any day during Climate Week. There are two versions of the Climate Week Challenge to choose from – one-hour and one-day – and the one-day version is judged nationally by a panel of judges.

Learners of any age are challenged to come up with creative solutions to climate change. The activity helps develop creativity, innovation and enterprise, team-working skills and experience of tackling real-life environmental issues to a deadline.

There are eight age categories, with different levels of sophistication expected, but everyone – from primary pupils to senior managers – will be given the same core task.

• It is completely FREE.
• Any school or organisation can take part.
• Any number of teams can be entered.
• No preparation is needed.
• The Challenge will be revealed to teachers a week beforehand.
• All that a team needs is a table to work at with pens and paper.
