Eco-Schools Green Flag award

We were successful in being awarded our Eco-Schools Green Flag in June 2024. We will hold the flag for two years and will be reapplying in March 2026.
The assessors made the following comments about the strengths of our school evident in the
application:
We are so impressed with all the great work that Miss Cunning and the Eco-Committee have prompted
and organised at St. MacNissi’s Primary School. The environmental review and the action plan are both
very detailed and include thoughtful evaluation. St. MacNissi’s Eco-Schools programme is exemplary in
its empowerment of students. It was apparent in the application but also in person when visiting the
school that students are encouraged to take on leadership roles and complete tasks as part of the EcoCommittee. It is also clear that the whole school has opportunities to learn and take part in important
environmental activities at the school. The school has been ambitious and taken on a variety of projects,
and they have also done a great job of collecting various data points about topic knowledge, litter,
waste audits, etc.
