The 6th class from Scoil Moibhi have qualified for the national final of the ECO-UNESCO Young Environmentalists Awards.
They recently travelled to the semi-final stage of the competition at the Leinster ECO-DEN. They impressed a panel of expert judges by pitching their eco-action project to secure a place in the Final, which takes place on May 23rd at the Mansion House in Dublin. There is great excitement in the school now the project is shortlisted for the final, where they will join over 80 other groups from around Ireland.
The group are calling on the support of the public to vote for their project for the 'People's Choice Award 2017', an award decided by online public poll. Voting is open from 2nd until 15th May on www.ecounesco.ie and the winner will be announced at the final.
The ECO-UNESCO Young Environmentalist Awards is Ireland's biggest all-island celebration of youth Eco-Action. Since 1999, the ECO-UNESCO's Young Environmentalist Awards has recognised and rewarded the environmentalist actions of thousands of young people 12-18 who are working to protect, conserve and enhance our environment through local environmental action projects, making a difference to their lives and the lives of others locally and globally.
It is with great sadness that the Board of Management, Staff and pupils learned of the passing of Joe Clinton. Joe was a lifelong friend and supporter of the school and our community.
Joe was a very proud past pupil, parent and grandparent. He served on and was Chairman of the Board of Management for many years playing an important role in the development of our school and community.
Joe visited the school regularly up until the last few years. He would talk to 5th & 6th class about the history of the local area and his time in Milverton school. A highlight always being the raid on Milverton Estate for apples. He arranged field trips to St. Moibhi's well and graveyard which were greatly enjoyed by all.
He will be very sadly missed by all our school community. On behalf of the Board of Management, staff and pupils we pass our deepest sympathies to the Clinton family.
Ar Dheis De go raibh a anam dilis. Ni bheith a leitheid aris ann.
