Oisín from 2nd (now 3rd class) raised our 6th Green Flag in METNS. We worked through the theme ‘Litter and Waste and Global citizenship’ to earn it, and concentrated on topics such as the amount of plastic used in the world. We, as a school community, have resolved to cut back on our personal plastic usage, to abandon plastic straws for ever, to buy Fair Trade products as much as possible and to re-cycle as much waste as we possibly can. We care about our beautiful environment and would love to keep it clean. We are sad about how much plastic there is in the sea, but we know that each one of us can make a difference. ??????
