Congratulations to Clare's Junior Infants class for winning the Litter Picker Class of the Month award for May! Clare's class performed the best overall in the school in keeping their floors tidy and separating waste into recycling and non-recycling bins. Marie presented the class with their certificate and is now proudly displayed on the Green School Noticeboard. It's great to see that overall in the school we have seen an increased awareness among the children about managing our litter and waste more efficiently. This is a great step for Maynooth Educate Together National School. For more information on how the other classes performed please see the attachment.
