Greenschools

Awards

The college has been working towards the Greens Schools Programme for the last number of years but it took an enthusiastic and hard working committee to really get it off the ground in 2006. Their efforts in recycling, and reducing and informing students worked well and we were awarded the Green Flag at the end of the school year 2005-2006. The flag was officially launched by Mr. Alan Crosbie at our prize giving in November and now the flag flies high in our school yard.
The theme of energy is now on the agenda and with a new committee, a group took part in the 2007 Christmas concert. The group of Tadgh Mc Sweeney, David Barry, Amy Kane, Mairead O'Driscoll, Connie Mc Kenna and Shannon Costello, explained the virtues of recycling and reducing waste.
There are 2 representatives from each class who meet each Wednesday for discussion and debate. The Chairperson this year is Laura Reaney with Secretary Lorna Llewllyn and PRO Aileen O'Sullivan.

A smaller group of green schools students has liasoned with the Schull Tidy Towns to produce metal posters of local flora and fauna. The students have to find out what animals and plants are to be seen on the shore line of the walk between the School Sailing Centre and the town of Schull.
