About

The Senedd in Cardiff Bay uses the latest environmentally friendly technology to save energy. The environmentally friendly features concentrate on four main areas : Lighting, Heating, Ventilation (cooling) and Recycling.

This programme will allow pupils to explore the materials and design features of the Senedd. Learners will then consider how the design of the building can solve problems that may affect the environment.

They will then debate an issue that will affect them, their community and Wales.
