We are currently working towards getting our third Green Flag for Water.

To conserve water in our school, we:

• Use rain water, which is collected by our water butt, to wash paintbrushes, do science experiments, water our plants and more!
• Check to ensure that taps are always turned off properly – a dripping tap can waste a lot of water!
• Placed 4  x 250ml bottles of water into each toilet cistern – every time a toilet is flushed, 1 litre of water is saved

The 4th and 5th class members of the Water Committee recently attended the Green-Schools Water Forum which took place in the Osprey Hotel in Naas. They shared their ideas with other Water Committees around the county and learned many new water saving tips to bring back to our school. A great day out was had by all!
