This year we are aiming for our Green Schools Travel flag. We have completed multiple activities to raise awareness for global warming as part of our flag over the past two years, Every Wednesday , children participated in WOW,WOW stands for walk on Wednesday which means children come to school in an eco friendly way . 5th and 6th took part in a six week bicycle workshop with South East cycle safety.  Pupils learned how to cycle safely, signal while cycling and how to check their bicycles are in working order. 

Junior classes up to 4th class participated in a scooter/ bicycle workshop with our Green schools  coordinator Chiara from An Taisce. Children completed traffic surveys and carried out walk ability and safety checks on the roads to school throughout the year . On the 23rd of May, two ,members of the Green Schools committee went to Hotel Kilkenny along with many others from schools from Laois, Tipperary and Carlow to receive our 4th school flag for travel.
