The Green-Schools Uisce Éireann Poster & Video Competition 2024 is now closed.
The theme of the competition is Water for Peace. This is the theme that the United Nations have chosen to mark World Water Day on March 22nd 2024. We have put together a fact sheet with information about this topic to help inspire students as they design their posters and storyboard their videos; you can also download the factsheet from the link below. Each year the Green-Schools Water team are blown away by the creativity and talent of the entrants – and we can’t wait to see what you come up with this year!
(*) Primary and Secondary schools that have been awarded the Green Flag for Water or are currently working on the Water theme are eligible to enter the poster competition. Please note: The Video Competition is open to secondary schools (same eligibility criteria) only.
