need to recycle and save energy usage. We currently have our Green Flag for Litter and Waste, and a Green
Flag for Energy. We are currently working towards achieving our next green fl ag for water. Students are

Student Council

The student council consists of two/three representatives from each year, elected by the general cohort
of students in the school. The Student Council meet regularly and work closely with the school leadership
team to ensure that our school is a safe and enjoyable place for all members of our school community. The
council strives to construct a positive learning environment for our students and gives them a platform to use
their voice to raise issues and implement change. A member of staff will liaise with the Student Council and
through the Council, links are formed between the students and the Board of Management.
