About Green Schools

The Green Schools programme was set up to raise environmental awareness across schools in Ireland. The Green Schools team and committee were re-established in Solas Chríost in September 2019. In 2020 our main aim is to renew our waste and litter flag. As a school we will work together to reduce our litter and waste and increase recycling school wide. 
​Recycle every day instead of throwing paper and plastic away!

Tweet of the Week!

Dandelions are popping their heads up all over the country. Their bright yellow flowers add welcome colour but more importantly, they provide loads of food for our hunger bumblebees just waking up form hibernation!@Corkcoco @Carrigdhounnews @mrstidytowns pic.twitter.com/UUui1U1xu4

Keep Belgard Clean + Green

Ms O'Connell's 1st class used recycled newspaper to create their slogan and it looks great! Reduce, reuse, recycle! 

Slogan Competition

​​Well done to everyone who entered the Green Schools slogan competition in November. The winning slogan and the two runners up are now on the notice boards in the foyer. The Junior Infants created a beautiful poster below the notice board. Let's go Green! Let's keep Solas Chríost Clean!
