Our recycled Christmas decorations are in! This year saw another brilliant effort from a huge number of students in the school and our judges have a tough job ahead. Eek!
Congratulations to our school champion from this year's Recycled Christmas decorations competition. Jude went to the celebration ceremony in County Hall, Dun Laoghaire with other school champions and An Cathaoirleach, Cllr. Tom Murphy. The ceremony was given a segment on RTE News 2day too which may be viewed here. Roberts of Dalkey have kindly allowed us to display the rest of the wonderful entries to the school in their window for Christmas. The Green Schools Committee put these up last week and it was a great chance to show the community our Green Schools work in the school. Take a look at the pictures below to see the decorated window and we would like to thank Roberts again for their help and the hot chocolates! :) Present for meeting: Adam and Matthew (2nd), Adam and Andrew (3rd), Darragh and Andre (4th) Mauro and Milan (5th), Ciarán, Gabriel and Rory (6th) Ms O'Neill and Mr Smith Minutes: - Preparation for visit to Roberts of Dalkey to hang up our decorations - 4th of December - Litter & waste and Energy tips for Christmas to be put up on Green Schools website by each of those teams - Renewal visit to be done by Dean Eaton in January - Updated Habitat Map to be drawn - New biodiversity equipment to be placed in school gardens - Mr Smith will get bird feed for our new feeders - Website to be updated by members of committee from 5th and 6th class.

We are running our recycled Christmas decoration competition in school again this month with our winner going to a Christmas ceremony in Dun Laoghaire County Hall. Last year, our remaining decorations were put on display in Roberts of Dalkey by our Green Schools committee (picture above!). We look forward to seeing the creativity in our school again and it is a great way to show how simple things from around the house can be reused as wonderful decorations! The deadline for entries to Mr Smith is Friday 24th November. Get decorating!
