By the end of this school year we hope to have been awarded our 4th Green Flag from the Green Schools Programme & An Taisce. The students have already done a lot of work on the current theme which is travel. Some of the children in the senior class carried out a ‘Walkability’ audit in order to establish the safest route for people who wish to walk or cycle to school. We actively encourage our students to walk or cycle to school and for those who live a bit too far away we introduced the system of ‘Park & Stride’ – this means parents can drive as far as the local hall, park there and walk the last bit to school. For those who cannot do this every day we ask them to try to participate WoW (walk on Wednesdays) & CoW (Cycle on Wednesdays).
