WHEN? WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 21st, KO 2PM

WHERE? MUSGRAVE PARK

HOW TO GET THERE? BUS FROM SCHOOL, MAKE YOUR OWN WAY HOME

TICKETS? AVAILABLE NOW ON EASYPAYMENTS, 10 EURO – FOR ENTRY AND BUS

Please Note!!! Since 3rd and 6th Years will be sitting their Pre- Exams, and will need their school bags for study purposes - they will have permission to store their bags on an assigned bus and collect their bag from that bus at the end of the game. All other Year Groups will store their bags overnight in the school, as per normal. Thank you.

Please also note!!! Only those students who leave from the school on one of our buses, will have permission to stand in the school allocated space in Musgrave Park. This is important to note, as some 6th year Students do not have Pre Exams on Wednesday, (and therefore will not be in school) and TY Students are on Work Experience. If these students want to gather with the school at the match, they will need to be at the school on Wednesday at 12.50pm to board the buses with all other students. Thank you for your understanding here.

On Saturday 23rd of March at 8.30pm, millions of people across the planet will unite to show they care about the future of our planet, by switching off lights for 1 hour.

It is one of the world’s biggest Environmental Actions for Nature, Climate and creation across the world.

This annual event encourages people, schools, communities, businesses & buildings of all types, to ‘Turn off’  non-essential electric lights, for one hour, from 8.30 to 9.30pm as a symbol of commitment to the planet – and to help create a better world for the future. 

Earth hour is the moment when people across the globe unite by switching off lights to show they care about the future of our planet - our one shared home.

The point of Earth Hour is not just to save energy for one hour;  it's also a symbolic event that shows we can all make a difference in the fight against Climate Change and to help our World. If we all work together, even small little changes can make a big difference!

Let’s take time out to reflect on what nature and our Environment means to you by joining Earth Hour 2024.
