Scoil Ghlas Green School

Coiste Glas na Scoile 2025-2026

Oibríonn coiste glas na scoile, atá faoi stiúr Niamh, Máire agus Caoimhe i mbliana go dian chun Gaelscoil Bhrian Bóroimhe a choinneáil glas. Go dtí seo tá naoi mbratach ghlas faighte ag an scoil – ceann don bhruscar, ceann don chaomhnú fuinnimh, ceann don chaomhnú uisce, ceann don taisteal inbhuanaithe ar scoil, ceann don bhithéagsúlacht, ceann don saoránacht domhanda bruscar, ceann don saorántacht domhanda fuinneamh; ceann don saorántacht domhanda – timpeallacht mhuirí agus an ceann is deireannaí don taisteal agus saorántacht domhanda. I mbliana tá an coiste ag  leanacht leis an obair dhian ar an deichiú bratach; sin don saorántacht domhanda (bia agus bithéagsúlacht mar chuid den téama Saoránacht Domhanda) .

Bronnadh an 10ú brat sin orainn inniu, an 20ú Bealtaine 2026. Féach anseo don scéal ar fad.

Bíonn cruinnithe rialta ag an gcoiste chun bealaí glasa na scoile a phlé agus a fhorbairt. Coinnigh súil amach don obair iontach atá ar siúl ins an gailearaí agus faoin nuacht is déanaí.

Our green schools committee, under the supervision of múinteoirí Niamh, Máire and Caoimhe this year work hard at implementing ‘green ways’ in Gaelscoil Bhrian Bóroimhe. To date the school has been presented with nine green flags – for the management of waste, for the conservation of energy, for the conservation of water, for sustainable travel, for biodiversity, for global citizenship (litter and waste) for global citizenship (energy), for global citizenship (marine environment) and the most recent earlier this year for global citizenship (travel). This year’s committee are working diligently on the schools tenth flag, which is for global citizenship (food and biodiversity). The committee meet on a regular basis to discuss and plan the ongoing green work in the school. Keep an eye on the gallery and latest news for further updates.

This flag was awarded today the 20th of May 2026. Have a look at the pictures in our news post here.

We are so proud of the ongoing work from our Green Schools Comittee. Maith sibh!

Roinnt nuacht ón gcoiste 2023-2024

Bhí an Choiste Ghlas thar a bheith gnóthach ar scoil inniu ag bailiú an muirín atá déanta ag na péistanna sa phéistlann.  Beidh leasú den chéad scoth ar fáil do na leapacha agus fás an earraigh. Féach anseo don scéal go léir.

The Committee were so busy today (January 18th 24) collecting the fine compost from the school wormery.  We will have the finest crops later this year with this super fertiliser. Click here for the full story.

Bhí an Choiste Ghlas gníomhach ag eagrú imeachtaí le linn Seachtain Um Aer Glan, 20-24 Samhain. 

The Committee were busy promoting Clean Aer Week.  Féach anseo.

D’eagraigh an Choiste Ghlas Malartú Bréagfheisteas na Samhna arís i mbliana.  Is smaoineamh iontach é seo ag an gcoiste chun laghdú ar chostas feistis nua a cheannach go bliantiúil. Breathnaigh sa nGailearaí agus sa nuacht is déanaí do ghriangraif.

After last year’s great success with the swap, reuse and recycle of Halloween costumes, the committee ran the swop shop again this year. Keep an eye on the latest news and the gallery for updates and photographs.

Ghríosaigh an Choiste Ghlas gasúir le páirt a ghlacadh in Seachtain Siúl ar scoil 2ú – 6ú DF 2023.  Bhí lá Náisiúnta Siúl ar Scoil ar siúl ar an 4ú DF agus tá griangraif le feiceáil sa nGailearaí nó anseo.

The committee took part in this years Walk to School week and we were out in force to snap our walkers on the National walk to school today on the 4th of October. Pics in gallery and here

This years new committee went to the local recycle centre to hear all about what happens there. Pics can be viewed here.

Bratach nua 2022-2024

An Naoú bratach ná an taisteal agus Saorántacht domhanda . Leis an mbratach seo a bhaint amach bhí an Choiste ag leanúint leis an obair iontach atá déanta chun daoine a mhúscailt siúil, rothaíocht, scútáil, córas iompar poiblí nó carr-roinnt a dhéanamh ar scoil.  In éineacht le sin, bhíodar ag fiosrú conas mar a chabhraíonn an gníomhú seo le deá-thionchar a bheith againn ar fhadbanna domhanda cosúil le caighdeán aeir agus forbairt inbhuanaithe. 

The ninth flag was for global citizenship and travel.  In obtaining this flag the green schools committee continued the excellent work already undertaken encouraging children and the school community to walk, cycle, scoot, take the bus or share a car  to school.  Along with this they investigated the effect sustainable travel has on worldwide issues like air quality and sustainable development.
