We had had great fun today in second class learning about trees in Ireland. Afterwards, we went outside to investigate how many different types of native trees we had in the on our school grounds.
!!! Important Green Schools Announcement !!!
Today we received a letter in the post telling us that we have been successful in getting our Green Schools Biodiversity flag. This is the 5th Green flag and only a small handful of schools are committed enough to achieve such a feat. This is very exciting news and I would like to say a huge well done and congratulations to Ms Heaphy and the Green Schools Committee who have been working tirelessly to achieve this status for the school. Also, we would like to say a huge thank you to the whole school community who help us to carry out our action plan and keep our school become greener each year. Without the efforts of all students and their parents this huge achievement would not be possible.
With this, a representative group of 4 will travel to the Helix, DCU campus, Dublin 9 to be presented with this flag from An Taisce on behalf of the school. This will take place on the 22nd of May.
