Eco Schools Green Flag

We are delighted to announce that Our Lady & St Joseph Catholic Primary school have been
awarded the Eco Schools Green Flag award, to celebrate all of their ecology achievements
over the academic year 2021-2022.

The Eco Schools Green Flag is an international accreditation that has recognised and rewarded young people’s environmental actions for over 25 years. An Eco-Schools Green Flag is the perfect way to acknowledge, reward and celebrate the ecological achievements of young people. It clearly demonstrates that their hard work is appreciated and it provides them with the confidence and motivation to continue actively engaging with environmental issues now and throughout their lifetimes. It creates the next generation of innovative, inspirational environmentalists and tells local communities that a school, college or nursery is forward-thinking and actively engaged in protecting our planet.

Well done to all of our staff and pupils. We are very proud to receive this esteemed award – and to celebrate, we are holding a special competition in school! All children are designing an ‘Eco flag’ to place in the boat at the front of the school, to showcase our success with all who visit
