On Tuesday May 14th Mrs. Bernard, Martina Condell and two Fifth Class pupils Ritu Hossain from Mr.Kennedy's and Vanessa Corluka from Ms. O'Connell's/Ms. Kenneally’s travelled to Cork to   collect the 5th Green Flag on behalf of St.Paul's N.S. from An Taisce.

The Munster awards ceremony was held in the Radisson Blu Hotel in Little Island and was   organised by the Green Schools organisation. The various Green Schools initiatives are held in    conjunction with the Environmental Departments of the different City and County Councils. The St.Paul's contingent were delighted to meet Nadia Sakni from Limerick City and County Council to say ‘Thank You’ for helping to arrange the  renewal visit for our Biodiversity Flag and for sending us supplies for our TLC5 clean up.

St. Paul's now have 5 flags as Follows : 
1. Litter and Waste 
2. Energy
3.Water
4. Travel and Transport.
5. Biodiversity 


The next theme in our environmental journey  is Global Citizenship : Litter and Waste.....Are we up for the challenge ??? Of course we are.
