Green Rhymes







Tin and Glim jump in the bin
to see what they could find
they found the green flag
recyeled the bag
and played a game of tag.

Sharon Boyle

Diddle diddle dumpling my son Lin,
Put his rubbish in a bin,
Paper in the green,food in the brown,
He turned Mother Natures frown
upside-down

Gary Donoghue




The rubbish stack is falling down, falling down,
falling down

The rubbish stack is falling down

with all its recycled items.


The rubbish stack is built again, built again,

built again

The rubbish stack is built again

with all its recycled items.


Shane Conneely


Mary Mary quite Contrary
How does your green school grow
With coiste glas flags
And newspapaer bags
And recycling bins all in a row.
Roll Roll Roll your rubbish
Even if you don't care.
Merrrily Merrily Merrily Merrily
The recycling bins are over there.


Halima Jailan

Mr. Kilbane, Mr. Kilbane,
I'm quite a fan,
How does your green school go?!
"With lots of bins we have no sins
and no litter on show!!"


Nicole Sylver




Humpty Dumpty found a tin
but he didn't put it in the bin.
All the King's horses and all the king's men
told the Green School about Humpty Again.
Little Jack Horner sat in the corner
sorting out his rubbish
Some in the green, some in the brown and some in the grey.
Then he said"What a good boy am I".

Ryan Daly





Jack and Jill went up a hill

to fetch a pail of rubbish

Jack fell in and broke the bin
and all the rubbish came after him.
There was a farmer who had
a bin and litter was his name-o
l-i-t-t-e-r l-i-t-t-e-r l-i-t-t-e-r
and litter was his nam-o.

Aoife Mc Peake


Ba ba black sheep have you any rubbish.
Yes sir 3 bags full of it.
1 for the grey bin and
1 for the the green
1 for the brown bin
lets keep this school CLEAN.

LIAM GALLAGHER.


There was a binman who
had a dog and Recycle was
his name-o
R-E-C-Y-C-L-E
R-E-C-Y-C-L-E
R-E-C-Y-C-L-E
And RECYCLE was his name-o

November poem by Halima Jailan


NOVEMBER POEM


Frosty cold mornigs

Winter is coming by.

Short days approaching

Dark days, dark nights,dark sky.


Playing in the snow

Or dancing in the rain

Sitting by the fire with each happy member

This the month this is November.

The school is now spick and span!! The other classes now continue to clean the school grounds weekly.We are working on receiving a green flag for our school.
