Green Schools Letters from An Taoiseach and the President

Last May, our school was awarded its 5th Green Flag for the tremendous effort that it makes to promote Biodiversity around the school. Recently, we received two letters, one from An Taoiseach and from the Office of the Secretary General to The President of Ireland congratulating us on this success. Well done to everyone involved!!
