GREEN SCHOOLS UPDATE - January 2018. OUR WORK ON THE GREEN FLAG FOR "TRANSPORT"

Having elected our committee we set to work. On November 24th 2015 ,Camilla visited our school and conducted a“Walkability Audit” and ”Traffic Count Survey” with Cara, Katie H and Katie F. and Mrs. Noonan.

We checked the nearby roads for signage, surfaces, ramps, litter, bins, flashing lights etc.

- We noticed flashing lights on the approach to our school from Allenwood and Derrinturn.
- We noticed that there were no rumble strips to slow traffic. 
- The footpath outside our school is 370 cm wide which is good for safety.

​In November we held a Transport Poster Competition. Here are the winners:

• - Junior Infants Joey O`Sullivan
  - Senior Infants Daniel Kane 
  - 1st Class Brianna Eustace
