The Green School Committee is now set up and running in Boyne Community School.  30 students across all year groups are now involved and meet every Thursday.  We are aiming to achieve our first flag in ‘Litter and Waste’ in the near future!  If you are interested in joining and doing your bit for the environment, please contact Ms. Sweeney.
