Sixth green flag for Dunbeg Primary School

-

DUNBEG Primary School pupils have earned their sixth green flag.

The school’s eco committee has been focusing on litter, energy, food and the environmen­t. This involved ensuring the school grounds were free from litter and taking part in litter picking throughout the village as part of the National Spring Clean initiative. They also took part in the Marine Conservati­on Society’s Beachwatch beach clean and recorded all the litter they found and constructe­d graphs of their findings. The children learned to grow their own food and made shortbread and soup for the school harvest lunch for senior citizens. They also looked at the labelling on food and explored where it had come from and tasted food from different cultures.
