Green Schools

Green-Schools, is an international environmental education programme, environmental management system and award scheme that promotes and acknowledges long-term, whole school action for the environment. Unlike a once-off project, it is a long-term programme that introduces participants (students, teachers, parents and the wider community) to the concept of an environmental management system.

This year at Scoil Bhríde we are applying for our third green flag – Water which is the third theme that schools undertake during the Green-Schools programme.

As part of this initiative during February we organised a Water Awareness Week. During this week we all participated in water awareness activities. Some highlights included specific water themed work in each class, and an “Water Saving Rap” competition.
