We had a wonderful day on Friday, June 11th when we raised our third Green Flag. All the school assembled on the top yard around the flag pole. Therese Ridge and Derek Keating from the County Council were there and they spoke about how important it is to protect our environment. Then Bn Ui Chadhain raised the flag to a big cheer and she spoke about Bawnogue and her first days here and she also talked about her experiences in her ‘new’ Bawnogue in Malawi in Africa.
Fr Marino sang ‘You raise me up” which was beautiful and moving and all the children joined in.
Then the visitors, parents and the Green Team went to the hall where there was tea and sandwiches and a beautiful cake made by Sean Hanson’s dad.
Ms Cahill’s class and Ms Doherty’s class performed their songs about conserving water. They got a huge applause.
So now we have 3 Green Flags and we have to remember what they stand for.
