National Award for Past Pupil
We would like to convey our congratulations to past pupil Sorcha O’Donoghue and 2 of her classmates, now attending Gaelcholáiste Chiarraí. Since the start of TY, for an entire school year, they have been working on an envioronmental project based on fast fashion for the Eco UNESCO Young Environmentalist Awards and were finalists. But today, in a live awards ceremony on YouTube they found out that they won the senior climate change category at all Ireland level! President Michael D. Higgins addressed the students at the ceremony today and you can watch it on this link:
(Find Sorcha just after 39m.) We are extremely proud of you Sorcha, always a conscientious student and continuing spreading the Green-schools message beyond Primary school. Well done girls. What an achievement!
