On Friday 9th June 2017, Scoil Naomh Eltin received their H.P.S flag. Along with this, the whole school supported the 'Giving for Living' campaign sponsored by Corks 96 FM. All the children took part in a charity walk around Kinsale. We were very lucky as Corks 96FM joined us on our charity walk. Following this, a coffee morning was held and we are delighted to announce that €697.50 was raised to support cancer services in Cork. We are all very proud and thank you to everyone that took part, donated or helped us in any way.  Friday, June 9th 2017, was a very special day for Scoil Naomh Eltin. Scoil Naomh Eltin became the latest school in the country to be presented with the 'Health Promoting Schools' Flag'. This flag was presented by a representative of the H.S.E, Mrs. Eileen Haran. Thank you to all on our H.P.S. team and especially to the co-coordinators Ms. O Driscoll and Ms. O Connor. Parents /Guardians
