Green School

We are very proud of our Green School Status here at St. Naul’s National School, and have now achieved five Green Flags:

  1. Litter & Waste
  2.  Energy
  3. Water
  4. Travel
  5. Biodiversity – we were awarded Biodiversity School of the Year in 2024/2025!


Each Green School Project is based around Seven Steps:

Step 1 – Green School Committee. 

Step 2 – Environmental Review. 

Step 3 – Action Plan – this states what our targets are and how we are going to achieve them.

Step 4 – Monitoring and Evaluation 

Step 5 – Curriculum work. 

Step 6 – Informing and Involving. This step will be our chance to inform the parents and wider community about the work we have been doing. 

Step 7 – Green School Code. We always have great fun with this step! We hold an art competition to design a character and motto to represent our project! We have had ‘Barry the Binman’, ‘Sonic The Switch’, ‘Danny the Drain’ and ‘Gary the Grape’ to name but a few!

We are enjoying working on our Green School Project and look forward to achieving our next Green Flag for our school!
