From gutters to slates, we made Rathcor N.S. look great!
Thanks to all for taking part in our An Taisce - National Spring Clean while also tackling some repairs and maintenance of the school.
Plenty of hands make light work....we had busy parents squeezing in as much time as possible to help out, some parents having to leave and come back so they could fit in swimming lessons, haircuts, family events & all that goes part in parcel with being a parent.
Thanks to Fionnghuala Watters for spearheading this event!!

Following the success on the Peninsula of this we are proud to be part of the Louth Community Safety Partnership bringing this across the county FREE. The 1st date for your diary is attached.

Over the summer, farm equipment thefts across Ireland spike — quads, trailers, power tools, and machinery are all at risk when farmers are often long hours working the land.

45% of Irish farmers have already been victims of theft. Don't become a statistic.

This free Property Marking permanently marks your Eircode onto every piece of equipment. It takes less than 1 minute. It lasts forever. And it's backed by An Garda Síochána.

Its not just for farmers but so bring your power tools, gardening items, laptops & tablets, bicycles and even golf clubs. You name it we can protect it FREE.

Calling all , your coastline needs you! 📣🌊

Our coasts and inland waterways has been affected by floods, storms and torrential rains in January and February, and with that lots of litter has washed up on our beaches, street shores, and riverbanks!😥

If you have time to give back, why not support local clean ups happening in your area after the floods and be a part of the positive for our coast! 💪🦺

groups make sure to tag us in your details and we can share your details! 👀

Also remember to send us on your photos and videos of before and after and let us show the Impact after the water subsides!📸 💙
