Following the temporary closure of schools, Green-Schools have
launched their latest project Green-Schools Stay Home.
https://greenschoolsireland.org/greenschools_stay_home_travel/
Green-Schools Officers around the country are developing new and
interactive activities that students can take part in from within the home
environment. Weekly activities and tips, which are suitable for a wide
range of age groups, promise to be fun and educational and can be
completed individually by students or involve the whole family.
Now in our fourth week of the online project we have already been
contacted by some of our co-ordinating teachers with positive feedback
so we hope that Erasmus students enjoy them too! We love direct
feedback as much as we love people sharing the creations and activities
that they have made at home, based on the Green-Schools Stay Home
project. Let us know what you think and if you have any suggestions of
what students might like to learn use the #GreenSchoolsStayHome and
