Sinead Mc Donnell, Environment Awareness Officer with Limerick City and County Council said: “Green-Schools is the leading environmental education programme for primary and secondary schools. There are so many resources freely available to schools from this worthwhile programme. It is student led and promotes long-term, whole-school action for the environment and the environment has never needed support more. I would encourage every school to participate in these free online Teacher Training workshops.”
The Green Schools project is an international project coordinated nationally by the Environmental Education Unit of An Taisce (FEE member for Ireland) and supported locally by Limerick City and County Council.
