The Green Flag is awarded to a school every two years and at present we have three flags for the areas of Litter and Waste, Energy and Water Conservation.

Litter & Waste 
This is the first theme of the Green-Schools programme. The theme is a great starting point for encouraging a sense of personal pride and responsibility in tackling two visible issues in schools and communities.

Energy
This theme looks at the steps which can be taken to reduce energy consumption and raise awareness of climate change issues. 

​
Water 
The Water theme looks at developing awareness around water conservation and how to effectively manage this important resource in our schools and at home.


We have been awarded our fourth flag on Travel. 
The aim of the travel theme was to increase the number of students walking, cycling, scooting, using public transport or carpooling on the way to school.

The next flag we hope to achieve is the Biodiversity flag.
