St Patricks BNS Skibbereen have been involved with the Amber Flag Initiative since 2018.
This initiative promotes positive mental health across the school community.
Each year students form a committee and as part of this group they organise enjoyable activities throughout the year for the whole school.
The motto of the St Patricks Amber flag is 'Think Well ,Be Well '.
Students benefit hugely from working as part of a team and the whole school have enjoyed activities such as :
Funday Friday
Get up,Get out
Icecream day
Gratitude at Christmas time
Take time for yourself
