Amber Flag Initiative

The Pieta Amber Flag Initiative recognises the individual efforts of primary to create healthy, inclusive environments that support mental well-being.

The Pieta Amber Flag initiative enables schools and youth groups across the country to raise awareness of the stigmas, which exist in their environments, and the stressors on the mental and emotional wellbeing of those within them. We here in Aghada National School strive to focus on the children’s positive mental health.

We have received our first Amber Flag in 2019. We are actively aiming for another flag.
