National Tree Week – Tree Distribution 🌳
27th Mar 2026
We were delighted to receive 20 native trees from Cork County Council as part of National Tree Week.
The varieties included:
- Common Alder
- Common Birch
- Pedunculate Oak
- Scots Pine
To make the most of this wonderful opportunity, we decided on the following:
🌿 10 trees were donated to the local Tidy Towns Committee to support their fantastic work in our community.
🌿 1 tree was planted here at our school.
🌿 The remaining 9 trees were raffled among boys in 6th class who wished to plant a tree at home.
This was a great opportunity for our pupils to take part in caring for the environment and to contribute to biodiversity in our local area.
Many thanks to Ms Eileen Breen O’Riordan for organising this initiative, and to Cork County Council for their support.
