Derry school pupils presented with ‘Tommy the Turbine’ books

Primary seven pupils at a Derry primary school have been presented with
copies of a new educational book written by a local teacher.

Pauline Davison’s “Tommy the Turbine,” which was presented recently to
pupils at Eglinton Primary School (pictured) tells the story of the journey
of a little wind turbine from his home in Canada, to his new life in the
beautiful countryside of Northern Ireland.

Tommy feels a little nervous as he makes his journey from Belfast port, and
through the countryside.

However, he meets lots of other turbines on his journey on farms, at
factories, at hospitals, who make him feel so welcome.

He passes local towns and villages where the children are very excited at
his arrival.

They know that Tommy is going to help to provide a source of renewable
energy which will ensure the future of energy production.”

The publication was sponsored by Gaelectric, the renewable energy and
energy storage group.
