Our Green Schools Committee

In May, 2007, we were awarded our first Green Flag. Well done to Mrs. O' Connell and Ms. Feehan and the Green Schools Committee. We are very proud of this achievement.

We worked hard to win this award by reducing the amount of litter and waste in our school and environment.

We reduced the amount of waste that we send to landfill by approximately 50%.

We had litter wardens and compost bins, we shredded paper, collected and used recyclable materials in arts & crafts, visited Mr. Binman and we are a centre for collecting old mobile phones, batteries and ink cartridges in Adare.

We are now currently working towards our second Green Flag by reducing our energy consumption in the school.
