ECO SCHOOLS GREEN FLAG AWARD!!!
Congratulations to Mrs Kennedy, Mrs Hill and our committed school Eco Committee who have been awarded for the second time the prestigious Eco-Schools Green Flag by the environmental charity Keep Northern Ireland Beautiful.
The Eco-Schools Programme is the world’s largest Environmental Education programme and aims to make environmental awareness and action an intrinsic part of the life and ethos of a school. Its participatory approach and combination of learning and action makes it an ideal way for schools to begin improving the environments of schools and their local communities.
Eco-Schools work through a simple seven-step process resulting in the programme becoming central to the school's ethos. Schools can choose from ten eco-topics ranging from litter and waste to energy, biodiversity and transport to name a few. The internationally recognised Green Flag is this highest award given to Eco-Schools and symbolises excellence in the field of environmental activity.
WELL DONE TO EVERYONE IN SCHOOL, YOU HAVE HELPED TOWARDS OUR SCHOOL RECEIVING THIS AWARD!!
