The Flag Week video competition is organised by the Thomas F. Meagher Foundation which promotes pride and respect for the Irish flag. Melanija Cvetic, 2nd Year CSPE student, explains in more detail about the competition.
The Flag Week video is a contest hosted by the Thomas F. Meagher Foundation in celebration Ireland's flag and 100 year anniversary of the 1916 rising. The video documents Stratford students' promotion of active citizenship and peace, respect and pride for our Irish flag. The second years of Stratford College were given this as a CSPE project and all worked together in creating the video. It was a great experience for all of us and I think that we have learnt a lot about our flag's history from it.
