Science Meets Creativity In Hands-On Environmental Project At Clooney NS

A creative project in North Clare has been bringing science, art and environmental awareness together in a very hands-on way. Pupils from Clooney National School have teamed up with CÚRAM researchers and environmental artist Evelyn Sorohan to create striking wildlife artworks made entirely from recycled plastic waste. The project aims to highlight the impact of plastic on the environment while encouraging sustainable thinking from an early age. To tell us more, Alan Morrissey spoke with Evelyn Sorohan and pupils at Clooney school, Heather Broderick and Heather Harrison. Photo (c) Evelyn Sorahan
