Tá Coiste na mBunscoileanna Glasa an-ghníomhach agus bríomhar i gColáiste Dhún Másc. Tá sé comhdhéanta de bhaill ó gach bliain sa scoil. Tugann sé deis do na daltaí úinéireacht a ghlacadh ar cheisteanna comhshaoil atá tábhachtach dóibh agus athrú dearfach a chruthú sa scoil agus sa phobal áitiúil araon.
WOW – Siúl ar an gCéadaoin
Is tionscnamh náisiúnta é WOW (Walk On Wednesdays / Siúl ar an gCéadaoin) atá mar chuid de chlár na mBunscoileanna Glasa. Spreagtar daltaí, múinteoirí agus tuismitheoirí chun siúl ar scoil gach Céadaoin. Tá sé mar aidhm leis an tionscnamh tinreamh níos inbhuanaithe a chur chun cinn, an timpeallacht a chosaint trí laghdú ar thrácht agus ar thruailliú, agus sláinte fhisiciúil na ndaltaí a fheabhsú.
Ag Coláiste Dhún Másc, glacann ár gCoiste Scoile Glas páirt ghníomhach sa tionscnamh seo chun feasacht comhshaoil a ardú agus chun athrú dearfach a chur i bhfeidhm i bpobal na scoile agus sa phobal áitiúil.
Dunamase College has a very active and vibrant Green Schools Committee. It is made up of members from across all year groups. It is given the students an opportunity to take ownership of environmental issues that are important to them and create a positive change in both the school and local community.
WOW – Walk on Wednesdays
WOW (Walk On Wednesdays) is a national initiative that is part of the Green Schools programme. Students, teachers, and parents are encouraged to walk to school every Wednesday. The aim of the initiative is to promote more sustainable travel, protect the environment by reducing traffic and pollution, and improve students’ physical health.
At Dunamase College, our Green Schools Committee takes an active part in this initiative to raise environmental awareness and bring about positive change both in the school and the wider community.
