GLOBE Air quality campaign 2024
Sixth Class have just kicked off the annual GLOBE Air Quality Campaign! We have completed the GLOBE Air Quality Survey over the past two years at our school. The experiment measures Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) levels at three different locations (Sheltered, Car Park and Near Main Road) on our school grounds. Nitrogen Dioxide is an air pollutant mainly associated with traffic.
This year we are again participating in the campaign to measure pollution levels in the air around our school. We had to place the test tubes at three different locations on our school grounds and will provide samples for analysis. The tubes will be in place for four weeks and we will take them down on October 23rd. We are looking forward to receiving feedback on our experiment and comparing the results to 2022 and 2023 to see if the air quality around our school is improving. 🤞 In addition this year, we are also required to conduct two traffic counts and weather observations each week! So if you see us out and about in the mornings with our clipboards, it is to collect data to help analyse and improve air quality at our school! 😁

Rathcormac autumn show 2024
There was great participation across Scoil Bhríde once again this year for Rathcormac Community Council's annual Autumn Show. The children from all ages across the school did themselves so proud participating and winning prizes in so many categories such as baking, art and crafts, photography, handwriting and vegetable growing. The produce grown by the children in the school garden featured also with beetroot, potatoes and wonky vegetables winning prizes also. Well done to all the children who entered and supported this wonderful event. 😊
Scoil Bhríde's got talent 2024

The judges had a very difficult decision on their hands again this year and awarded winners in two categories - Group Performance and Individual Performance!
Congratulations to all the children that took part in Scoil Bhríde's Got Talent 2024. You did yourselves so proud. 😁👏👏👏
Group Performance Winners .................. Grace and her dancers performing Mama Mia!

Glorious sunshine, delicious cake and disco dancing with DJ Bertie... it must be the GREEN SCHOOLS PARTY!
We couldn't have wished for better weather to celebrate raising our SEVENTH GREEN SCHOOL FLAG! The day got off to a fantastic start with Mrs. Howard raising our seventh green flag! The Green Schools Committee asked Mrs. Howard to raise the flag as Mrs. Howard has given 34 years of dedicated service to our school community and it is thanks to her that the Green Schools programme began in Scoil Bhríde almost 15 years ago. Following this the entire school enjoyed ice cream thanks to the Parents Association whilst basking in the glorious sunshine. There was also delicious cake for all the students to sample which was baked by our S.N.A. Helen McGrath. We rounded off this fantastic celebration with a disco with DJ Bertie! We were so impressed by the dance moves, energy, enthusiasm (and screaming 😁) of the students at Scoil Bhríde! It was a whole school community effort to create this very special occasion with everyone contributing and playing their part. The children will have wonderful memories to treasure forever more from what might be their first or last Green School Party.
Huge thanks and congratulations to Ms. Murphy and the Green Schools Committee for planning and organising this amazing celebration! Comhghairdeas libh go léir! 👏👏👏

GREEN school day of action success!
Congratulations to the entire school community - students, parents and staff on the very successful Green Schools Day of Action held on March 7th! Only 4 cars came through the gates for morning drop off (a reduction of 60 cars). It was lovely to see all the children walking and wheeling into the school. After Easter we will continue to have our “Walk or Wheel on Wednesday”. The aim is to reduce the amount of traffic in the school grounds and thus improve the air quality of the school environment. Walking or wheeling also contributes to the children's overall well being. Thank you to our Green School Committee and Ms. Murphy for coordinating the Green School Initiatives in Scoil Bhríde.
In addition we decided to mark the occasion with planting activities to improve biodiversity, air quality and well being on the school site. Special thanks to all the parents who came to help out with the planting of the hedge and trees. Thanks also to Goran and Ivana from Cork Landscaping for their services and to Ms. Hogan for coordinating this project. Pupils will enjoy seeing the hedge and the trees grow. Check out the smiling faces below. 😁
