Our green schools committee
The Road to Our Second Flag
Since being awarded our first flag the Green Schools’ Committee have expanded our comprehensive Litter & Waste Management programme to focus on Energy Management.
A new Green Schools’ Committee was elected with representatives from each class who work together in order to achieve the Green Flag for Energy Management.
The Committee meets regularly to ensure that we maintain our efforts in the area of Litter & Waste Management and to work on the new Energy programme.
The Green School Committee carried out an extensive review of Energy Usage in our school. Using this review the Committee identified actions that could be undertaken to conserve energy in our school. These actions form the basis for our Action Plan for Energy Awareness & Energy Management in our school.
