Dear Maureen and all at Scoil N Mhuire,
Your school’s dedication to the Green-Schools programme through all ten themes has helped us shape the programme for future students, and as such, we are delighted for you to take part in our latest programme development….
Primary Climate Ambassadors!
This exciting new programme has been designed by the Climate Action Team especially for 3rd to 6th class students. It is grounded in critical thinking and inquiry-based learning, providing an immersive experience for participants. We recommend that one class (or the Green-Schools Committee and Coordinator) takes the lead, but there will be lots of opportunities in the programme for the whole school community to get involved.
Your school will be awarded the Green Flag after two years and we ask that you complete a minimum of two climate challenges per year.
You will be delighted to hear that fifth class have taken the lead on this initiative this year. We have completed two climate challenges for this year and have recently named our team after much discussion.
Team name is: Road to Green (RTG)
We have just been informed that as of now we are joint third on the table. I've uploaded a screenshot of the table for you to see.
