Stratford Green Schools Committee Achieves our 6th Green Flag - for Biodiversity!

Stratford College was presented with its 6th Green Flag for Biodiversity at a ceremony last week in DCU! 

This Biodiversity Theme looks at steps which can be taken in schools to increase awareness of the importance of native plants, animals and habitats and to increase species-richness in a locality.
