Congratulations to all the participants in the European Week against Racism Art competition. St. Ronan's NS received a huge amount of entries, all of a very high standard. We had a record amount of winning entries and those children attended a special awards ceremony in SDCC where they received their prizes.  Children from Ms. Conlon's fifth class participated in Andrew St. Ledger's "Forest in a Box" workshop. The children learned about native Irish tress and the important role of trees in the environment. They then planted seeds from native Irish trees in our school garden. The Green School Committee are very busy working towards their Global Citizenship, Litter and Waste Flag. The committee are now collecting raw food waste every Friday to compost in the school wormery. The Clean and Green Team as well as some students from Fifth class have been busy planting new flowers and cleaning up the garden area in the Main School Area. The Committee organised a green day on Friday 1st of February in order to raise funds to go towards the installation of a sensory garden in our School Garden. The total raised was €356.88 . Thanks to all students for their contribution. Well done to all the people who put in entries to our competition this year. We had 38 different art-works this year and they were wonderful. A big team of judges picked out the following 8 projects which were sent on to the S.D.D.C competition. They will be on display in The County Hall in Tallaght. Fifi's Christmas Tree, made from recycled bottles Kuba and Filip's recycled can tree Ryan Morris's Egg- Box Christmas Tree Freya and Lacey's Christmas Tree also made from plastic bottles Channelle's lovely Christmas Wreath Rebecca Maguire's Angel made from a book Andrea's Christmas Tree Denis's plate of cookies. It has been busy in the school garden, with out recent good weather everything has been growing well. We have lettuce, peas, potatoes , onions , carrots and scallions growing. Well done to all the helpers! As a result of the fantastic effort made by students for National SOW day the school received a scooter rack. It was almost full on its first day. We look forward to seeing many students scouting on a daily basis.  A new wormery has been installed in the garden area and we have begun composting our fruit and vegetable waste there. The Committee are currently working on ideas to allow classes to compost their own waste. Click on images to enlarge. We had a visit from Aoife Munn during Eco Awareness week. She worked with classes to make their own compostable pots and planted lots of flower seeds. |
