Green Flag

Submitted on 26 November 2014 - 3:39pm

We have formed a Green-Schools Committee which includes a class representative from each class in the school starting with Junior Infants all the way up to 6th Class. We want to keep our planet green!

Here are some areas we are working on in school:
