Congratulations to Ms. Payne on an excellent programme on Climate Change. The morning started with a voluntary ‘Carbon Tax’ on cars with less than 3 people with proceeds given to our weekly Soup Run for the Homeless.
Each year group, 2nd through 5th Year, had an Assembly, Liturgy, Quiz and Lecture on some aspect of Climate Change with guest speakers:
Meaghan Carmody from ‘Friends of the Earth’
Catherine Devitt spokesperson for climate change coalition,
‘Stop Climate Chaos’
John Gibbons, An Taisca’s Climate Change spokesman
There was also a display of students Art and Project work on Climate Change on display on St. Patrick’s corridor.
I thank Ms. Payne for this brilliant initiative
