Health Promoting School Flag




Ms Ormiston and the Health Promoting Team are delighted to announce that Scoil Mhuire have been awarded their Health Promoting flag.  Carmel Halpin, the Health Promoting Officer, made the presentation on the 18th of December 2019.  Every pupil in the school was presented with a Health Promoting towel and some parents from the PA made delicious fruit platters to celebrate the occasion - a big thank you to Patricia O’Reilly, Mary Flanagan and Jody Gilsenan!

Well done to the HPS team for all their hard work over the past two and half years for embedding and encouraging healthy habits over our 4 main areas; To Improve and work on our Positive Mental Health, To Improve our Nutrition and Eating Habits, To Promote Physical Activity and To Promote Hand Hygiene.  We will continue to work on these areas and make Scoil Mhuire a super healthy school!
Thanks to the whole school community; staff, pupils and parents for embracing the process and implementing it in their daily lives making it a huge success.  Let’s keep up the good work in the new year!
HPS Team: Mikey Smyth, Lilly Kangley, Finn McEllin, Lucy Gilsenan, Ewan Gilsenan, Tara Olwell, Maya Ormiston and James Carville.  And a huge thank you to Ciaran McEllin our parent rep who has been very helpful and supportive throughout the process!
