            Green Flag School

            We have a Green Schools Committee who work at making everyone in our school more conscious about the
            need to recycle and save energy usage. We currently have our Green Flag for Litter and Waste, and a Green
            Flag for Energy.  We are currently working towards achieving our next green flag for water. Students are
            encouraged to be part of this committee. Your involvement in this committee will make our school a Greener
            School.

            Student Leadership

            Student Council


            The student council consists of two/three representatives from each year, elected by the general cohort
            of students in the school. The Student Council meet regularly and work closely with the school leadership
            team to ensure that our school is a safe and enjoyable place for all members of our school community. The
            council strives to construct a positive learning environment for our students and gives them a platform to use
            their voice to raise issues and implement change. A member of staff will liaise with the Student Council and
            through the Council, links are formed between the students and the Board of Management.
