💚This year, 6th Class proudly took part in the Clean Coasts Big Beach Clean, an annual call-to-action that is part of the International Coastal Cleanup (ICC), operated worldwide by Ocean Conservancy.
🥰The Big Beach Clean encourages individuals, schools, communities, and volunteers from all over Ireland to come together and remove litter from our coasts and waterways at the end of the Irish bathing season.
In addition to cleaning up, volunteers contribute to a global citizen science project. By recording the quantities and types of litter found on Irish beaches, using Clean Coasts’ Marine Litter Data Cards or the Clean Swell app, participants provide important data. This information helps raise awareness about marine litter on our island and plays a vital role in shaping future environmental policies and campaigns.
6th Class were delighted to play their part in protecting the environment, keeping our beaches clean, and helping the global effort to reduce marine litter.
