All the pupils and teachers have been very busy for the past two years working towards and achieving our first Green Schools Litter and Waste flag. Well done to our first Green School Committee who put in a huge amount of effort and commitment.

On Tuesday the 21^st of November, we were invited to attend Wexford County Council’s Annual Environment Awards to receive an award for achieving our first Green Flag. We were presented with a framed certificate and bird house to display at our school.

We are now working our second Green Flag, which is based on reducing the amount of energy the school uses. A new Green School Committee has been formed. Our new class representatives include:

6^th class:               Johnny Connors, Paddy Higgins, John Connors, Aaron Doyle

5^th class:               Jason Kavanagh Leacy, Colm Redmond Grannell, Aaron Remenyik, Ava Byrne

4^th class:               Jack Larkin, Sean O’Farrell, Conall Molloy, Diarmuid Cronin

The new committee’s first task is to complete an environmental review of the school, gathering information based on our current status in regards to our energy consumption.
