We are delighted to be able to host this event with Michael Bell of Nature Learn.

Places are limited so booking is essential please - email [email protected] as soon as possible.

A bus will transport you from Kilteevan Community Centre to and from the walk.

This event is FREE

This event will follow the Cloonlarge Loop Trail in Kilteevan which is a gentle 5km loop walk bordering our boglands. We should be back at the Community Centre by 1.00pm. Please note the length of the walk. It is not suitable for very young children.

During the walk you will learn how to record what you see and join Ireland’s Citizen Science community.  Some members of Kilteevan Tidy Towns will share their experience of the benefits and fulfilment of Citizen Science.

This event is kindly supported by Roscommon Co Council Heritage Office and the National Parks and Wildlife Service.

Staff and pupils of Kilteevan NS are taking part in the WEEE Ireland Schools Battery Recycling Challenge. We need your help with collecting used batteries, so that we can be in with a chance of winning a €2,000 Sports Equipment Voucher for our school!

 n your home, there could be used batteries hiding in:

 - Christmas Tree Lights

- Old Toys

- Outdoor Decorations

- Watches

- Talking Teddies/Dolls

- Computer Mice and Keyboards

- Electric Toothbrushes or razors

- Battery powered candles

- Old TV Remote Controls

- Old radios 

 Please don't put them in a drawer and PLEASE DON'T PUT THEM IN THE BIN! Give them to a pupil of Kilteevan National School or drop them in to our school's shelter and we will happily add them to our collection for recycling.

 Did you know that the precious metals and materials recovered from used batteries can be recycled to make lots of new items e.g. spectacle frames, pots and pans to bikes?!

 By recycling your used batteries, you will also be supporting LauraLynn, Ireland’s Children’s Hospice. Every battery you recycle goes towards a donation fund to support their vital work.

 Please help us if you can!
