Greenschool Action Day
Green-Schools Action Day for our Green Flag Number 4 - Travel
St. Louis Infants School had their “Big Walk Day” on Friday, 9th March and what a wonderful day it was. The whole school made a big effort to walk to school from home or park and stride from various parking places around the town. Lots of us assembled in Mc Nally’s car park at 8.30 am. The staff, parents and the children all walked together. The sun shone it was a beautiful morning for a Spring Walk. The atmosphere was warm friendly and there was a real community spirit with parents helping with supervision and photographs. Mrs Carmel Mc Carroll, the Principal led the way and facilitated a very safe crossing at the traffic lights. It was lovely experience for all who participated.

Museum Railway Artefacts. A big Thank You to Pauline Tilson, Education Officer in Monaghan Museum for her Display of Railway Artefacts, which the First classes enjoyed immensely. It is always interesting to learn about times past and how our grandparents travelled.
- The Table Quiz
The Senior Infants had great fun with their very first experience of a table quiz. It was based on the “Climate Change Workshop” which we took part in back in November 2017. Thanks to Sorcha Brophy, Greeen Schools Co-ordinator from An Taisce for her power point presentation, which she emailed to us and to the class teachers and Ms. Hughes, Ms. Fitzpatrick and Mrs. Greenan who helped in the classrooms.
Thanks to Mrs. Greenan our Green School Co-ordinator and the children on the Green School Committee who organised all these events for the whole school Action Day. We had busy but enjoyable day.
