Primary continues its successful Electricity Safety Week (ESW) partnership with Ausgrid, Endeavour Energy, Essential Energy, Energex, and Ergon Energy Network, engaging a record 3,675 schools across NSW and QLD and providing fun, hands-on resources to teach students about electricity safety.

We’re thrilled to announce another successful Electricity Safety Week (ESW), which took place from 2-6 September.

Since its inception in 2001, ESW has been a cornerstone program for primary schools across New South Wales and Queensland, and this year we reached new heights with a record 3,675 schools participating—our most successful year to date.

At Primary, we’re proud to partner with Ausgrid, Endeavour Energy, Essential Energy (NSW), Energex, and Ergon Energy Network (QLD) to deliver this vital program.

From producing curriculum-aligned resource packs, including K-6 lesson books with STEM activities, prizes, posters, and stickers, to developing content, promoting the program, and registering schools, we manage every detail to ensure a seamless experience.

We also facilitate employee volunteer visits program, where industry experts from Endeavour Energy have the opportunity to visit schools in their network area during ESW, to educate students on the importance of electricity safety, in a fun and interactive.

Electricity Safety Week is offered free of charge, reflecting the commitment of Ausgrid, Endeavour Energy, Essential Energy and Energy QLD to building safer communities through education. As we continue to play a part in growing and evolving this initiative, we’re inspired by the overwhelming participation and enthusiasm from teachers and students. We can’t wait to build on this for ESW 2025!
