Congratulations! We have received our 2nd Amber Flag
Hello Everyone,
I am delighted to inform you that we have been awarded our second Amber Flag. Unfortunately, due to the current circumstances, The Pieta Amber Flag Team cannot hold the national award ceremony. However, we will receive our flag in September and we will have a flag raising ceremony in school.
I would like to thank you all for your commitment and dedication to promoting Positive Mental Health in our school this year. Well done to everyone for doing the Daily Mile and I hope you are all keeping it up with your families. Children in the junior classes learned about looking after their wellbeing through literacy and children in the senior classes used the Weaving Wellbeing Programme to discover ways in building their self-esteem, confidence, growth mindset and resilience. We also learned a lot about looking after our bodies and minds during our wellness week.Hopefully, you can use some of the knowledge you gained this year to help you relax and stay healthy at home.
Again, well done to all of you.
Kindest regards,
Marie Davitt

Congratulations! We have received our 8th Green Flag
Hi Everyone,
I received an email informing us that we were successful in our application for our 8th Green Flag! Unfortunately they cannot hold face to face award ceremonies at the moment but they do plan to have a virtual ceremony before the end of June. We will receive our flag and certificate in the post as soon as schools reopen and we can hold our own flag raising ceremony then!
I would just like to thank you for all the hard work that you put in with your classes working on our theme of Global citizenship and the marine environment. I really enjoyed working on this theme with all of you together!
Have a look at the Greenschoolsireland.org website and click on Projects on the homepage. This will bring you to their Stay home activities page.
https://greenschoolsireland.org/projects/
There are lots of interesting lesson ideas, videos clips and activities for children of all ages related to all the themes we have been working on.
Keep safe,
Claire Power
