Green Flag Award for St Patrick’s!

25th Apr 2018

Pupils and staff are celebrating their success in achieving the Green Flag Eco award following two years of hard work to improve the school grounds, become more efficient at re-cycling and learn about a variety of environmental topics.

The topics chosen for special focus this year were Waste, Biodiversity and Outdoor Learning.

Congratulations to the Eco team who provided great leadership and who enthusiastically carried out a variety of activities. 

Congratulations also to all the staff who worked hard to support pupils in this process. 

Special thanks to teacher, Richella Canavan, who led the work this year. Miss Canavan was ably supported by Mr Trainor, Mrs Austin, Mrs Cruz, Mrs Hynes, Miss Lively and all other staff members who all played their parts.

It was a very successful team effort! 

The school grounds look lovely.
