Holistic and Long-Term
Green schools is an international environmental education programme, offering a well-defined, controllable way for schools to take environmental issues into the curriculum and apply them to the day-to-day running of the school. Green schools is a holistic, long-term programme.
St. Flannan’s College is committed to providing its students and staff with a clean and respected working and learning environment. The aim of our committee is to make students, staff and the wider community aware of how their lifestyle choices affect the environment and to ensure that St. Flannan’s continues as a green school into the future.
A team of enthusiastic, committed students make huge efforts to look at how our school can be more environmentally friendly and carry out green school initiatives during school. We as a Post Primary school believe that every small effort can make a big difference on a daily basis.
The school is currently working towards the Litter & Waste flag. Subsequent to achieving this flag we will be moving onto the Travel flag. St. Flannan’s is looking forward to working closely with all interested parties in achieving our Green school status. The Green Schools Programme aims to include all members of the School Community. Parent participation is most welcome. We are open to new ideas and suggestions.
