Le déanaí bhí comórtas ag an gCoiste Glas. Rinne gach páiste a Ollphéist Dramhaíl féin as ábhair éagsula a bhí acu sa bhaile, mar shampla, cairt boscaí, éadach, cnaipí, buidéal plaisteach & olann. Rinne gach éinne sár-iarracht - maith sibh go léir! 

The Green Schools committee recently organised a competition. Each child made their own litter monster from waste or general materials they had at home - cardboard boxes, buttons, plastic bottles, wool but to name a few. Everyone put in a great effort and the standard was extremely high - well done to everyone who participated!

I mbliana táimid tar éis cur isteach ar ár gcéad mbrat glas. Braitheann an chéad bhrat ar phobal na Gaelscoile ag gearradh siar ar, ag athchursáil agus ag áthúsáid ár ndramhaíl scoile. Ba bhreá linn go dtógfaidh gach páiste an clúdach timpeall a lóin, cartún deochanna agus aon lón nach bhfuil ithe acu abhaile leo. Tá bhur tacaíocht mar thuismitheoirí fíor thabhachtacht dúinn chun an bhrat seo a fháil.

Seo roinnt moltaí:

• Ládaigh an clúdaigh ( wrapping) timpeall lón na paistí
  
• Cuir ceapairí i mbosca lóin gan scragall stáin nó scannán cumhdaithe.
  
• Cuir deochanna i mbuideál gur féidir a úsáid gach lá in ionad cartún difriúil a thabhairt dos na leanaí gach lá.
  
• Is féidir gach cartún íogart agus buidéal actimel a ghlanadh amach agus a bhriseadh síos sula gcuireann tú iad sa bhosca athchursála sa bhaile. Is féidir leat a thaispeáint dod phaiste conas é seo a dhéanamh.

We have applied for our first Green Flag this year. Our first flag depends upon us reducing, recycling and reusing our school waste. We are asking that all children bring home their lunchbox packaging. We need you as parents to help. The following are some suggestions.

• Reduce the wrapping put around food in the lunchbox.
  
• Put sandwiches into a small lunchbox without wrappings such as tinfoil or clingfilm etc.
  
• Put drinks into a bottle with lids that can be washed out and reused (as opposed to cartons).
