The Northumbrian Water GLOBE Project

What if your school or education centre is selected?

If your school or education centre is selected to join this project, Northumbrian Water will provide you with the following, free of charge:

• an automated Davis Weather Station, and a rain gauge (Details here!)

• All the software to send your weather date to GLOBE and Northumbrian Water

• A one-day GLOBE Inset training session for 1 teacher

• Ongoing support from GLOBE for 12 months

This package is worth over £1,000!

In return, Northumbrian Water expects each of the selected schools and education centres to join the GLOBE Programme and send their weather data to both GLOBE and Northumbrian Water.  In addition, we hope the network of schools will develop joint projects, get involved with GLOBE in the UK and internationally, and help with publicity where they can.  Additional teachers in the school can also join the project by attending a training day, at a cost of £80 per teacher.

The training will be taking place throughout the North East starting in July 2007 and continuing in the Autumn Term.
