Michael is a huge loss to his loving wif e Heather and f amily, to the Shed and to the

The 15th Kerry Sneem Scouts Group
Peace Light 2019
In Palestine an eternal f lame burns in the Church of the
Nativity in the little town of Bethlehem – this is the place
where Mary and Joseph went, two thousand years ago
and where the baby Jesus was born. In December a
small ceremony was held in the Grotto where a Palestini-
an and an Israeli Scout took a light f rom the f lame and
carried it to Tel Aviv airport. The light was brought to Vi-
enna where a Peace Light Service was held. A young Scout carried the ‘f lame’
to the f ront of the Church and lit the Vienna Peac e Candle. Representatives of
Scout associations f rom all over the World were t hen invited to light their lan-
terns f rom this candle and to take this symbol of Peace home to their own coun-
tries. 15th Kerry Sneem collected the light f rom 2nd Tralee Scouts in Tralee, on
December 21st and shared this light of Peace with our community at St.
Michael’s Church, St. Patrick’s Church and the Church of Transf iguration over
Christmas. The light which we shared was carried by Scouts, by train and by
car, bus and on f oot through Austria, Switzerland and France and through the
Channel Tunnel over to Dover in England. The light next travelled to Holyhead
where it was brought on Stena Line by Scouts over the Irish S ea to Dublin.
Over the Christmas period the light has been shared by thousands of young
people to Churches and other places of Christian worship; to Hospitals and to
Hostels for homeless people, across the length and breadth of Ire-
land. Members of all sections f rom Beavers, Cubs, and Scouts took part in the
journey of the light of Peace in Sneem and Tahilla. Through f acilitation of bring-
ing the light to diff erent churches, participating in readings and writing their own
ref lections. I would like to thank everyone who participated in the event locally
and abroad. Especially Fr. Liam O’Brien and Rev Michael Cavanagh who ena-
ble the youth to participate in spreading the Light of peace this Christmas.

Lucie's School of Piano
held their annual Christmas concert in The Lof t at Dan Murphy’s Bar on the
20th of December. The atmosphere was cosy and it was amazing to see how
much the students improved their skill year after year. The standard of their
performances was very high and you couldn’t hear a f alse note. We listened to
some Christmas classics, but also Chopin, Bach, Debussy and some jazz.
Special thanks to Sean who lets us use The Lof t and also to Kris van Daele
for doing the sound system so everyone could hear the piano even in the f ur-
thest corner of the bar. We can't wait f or the next one!

SEAI One Good Idea
In October, two teams f rom the senior classes entered the
SEAI One Good Idea competition. One Good Idea aims to
help students gain a greater understanding of energy eff i-
ciency and climate change by challenging them to develop
an awareness campaign to creatively make people aware
of the simple changes that we can all make in our lives to
help address these issues. We are delighted to announce
that both teams f rom our school were successf ul in stage
1 of the competition and have been selected to attend the
Cork Regional Event in the Omniplex Cinema on Monday, 24th of February 2020.
At the event both teams, ‘Lego Lif e Savers’ and ‘Climate Change Kids’ will pre-
sent a Presentation Pitch and deliver their 1-minute f ilm on the Big Screen to a
panel of expert judges. If successf ul, the children will go on to attend the National
Finals in Dublin later in the year.
Green Schools
This year the theme of our Green School’s Flag is
‘Global Citizenship Travel’. This theme aims to increase
the number of students walking, cycling, scooting, using
public transport or carpooling to school. It also promotes
good health and a more active lif estyle, benef iting not
just our environment but our bodies too. During ‘Clean
Air Week’ Dave our Green Schools Officer came to visit
on Monday 18th of November. Luckily we have very ded-
icated students and parents who embraced this year’s
theme and were walking and carpooling to school in
November. We did lots of f un activities with Dave to help us understand the im-
portance of using environmentally f riendly methods of travel. We also played a
giant game of snakes and ladders in the hall.
Hospital Visit and Panto
The school was invited to visit the residents of Kenmare Community Nursing Unit
in December 2019. The children sang songs and played music and brought great
joy to all those listening. It was a lovely outing. We then f ollowed on to the Carne-
gie Arts Centre to see Santa’s Sooty Christmas. The children had a wonderf ul
time.
Christmas Concert
The children and teachers worked together to produce a unique play for the
Christmas concert this year. It was very enjoyable. Thanks to everyone who
was able to be there. The children also had a chance to give us a glimpse of
their individual interests and talents as part of the show. We f inished with a ren-
dition of Christmas songs and a f ew tunes on the tin-whistle.

We are delighted to announce that a school bus service
started on Monday 6th January 2020. The bus travels f rom
Kenmare Square to Tahilla CNS via Templenoe, Blackwa-
ter, Killarney -Sneem Road and Tahilla. This is very excit-
ing news.

SEAI One Good Idea Competition
Everyone is talking about climate change. And we all k now it is a serious is-
sue. But nobody thinks that they can make a diff erence themselves. Or can
we?
Earlier this year when discussing ideas f or the “SEAI One Good Idea Competi-
tion” we discussed ways that we could help the planet by making little changes
in our daily lif e. We realized that we all could make one small change that
would make a huge diff erence- Shopping and Eating in Season.
We are very excited to be one of 5 schools chosen to compete in the regional
f inals in Cork on Monday 24th February.
Diff erent f ruits and vegetables can only grow at certain times of the year.
Which means that certain f ruits and vegetables should only be in shops at cer-
tain times of the year. But have you ever not been able to buy strawberries in
winter?
When f ruits and vegetables are out of season, they are injected with pesticides
and chemicals that are terrible f or your health, and LED grow lights are t hen
used as artif icial sunlight which burns so many f ossil f uels which are killing the
environment.
The f ruits and vegetables are then imported into Ireland f rom the other side of
the world, which emits more CO2 than you can count. For example, a recent
survey that we conducted in 5th and 6th class in our local supermarkets showed
that raspberries are out of season and yet they are still in shops. These are
coming all the way f rom Egypt, which by the way is 2,707 air miles away! That
is emitting 143,471 pounds of CO2 just in one trip.
The price of the produce that is imported is more expensive than it would be if
it were in season. So if you buy and eat in season, you are automatically buy-
ing Irish produce, which is benef iting your pocket, your health and your planet.
We are trying to convince people to take our pledge to do their best to eat and
shop in season. We can make a diff erence. So can you.
We are making a keyring which will help you to shop In season. The key ring
will be f or sale in the f ew weeks! Please get in touch if you want to buy one!

“I pledge to eat and shop
in season”
We are taking the
pledge. Are you?

We had our f irst meeting of the new year last Tuesday. We’re
delighted to have got the 5 trees planted on the newly resur-
f aced Sportsfield road with help f rom Kerry County Council,
Leader f unding and suppliers Nangle & Nieson who grew them
at Aherla, Co. Cork. The trees we ended up planting are Pyrus
calleryana Chanticleer, an ornament al pear which will have
pretty blossom in spring and nice autumn colour. We are get-
ting metal surrounds made to f urther protect them.
We also planted 20m of wildlif e f riendly hedging behind the
Sneem Digital Hub - thanks to Louis, Joe and the CE team.
Our main project for the coming months will be the develop-
ment of the Community Orchard behind Seaview and we hope
everyone will get involved in choosing the trees and planting
and maintaining what we hope will be a great new resource f or
the village. Feel f ree to talk to any of the working group or
leave a message in the Resource Centre.
