Mark is working on a campaign that will allow each school in Ireland to be presented with a tricolour which has flown over the GPO.
Each day a different tricolour will be risen over the GPO so that by the end of a year there will be 365 flags available to present to schools in an annual ceremony.
This initiative will continue until such time as each school in the Republic of Ireland has a tricolour proudly displayed inside the school.


Mark expects to complete this project by 2016 in time to commemorate the centenary of the Easter Rising.

 

As we approach the centenary of the 1916 Rising never has there been a more suitable time to pass a resolution to commemorate heroes that were the Volunteers of 1916. The Flag hanging in the schools will be 6ft x 3ft, roughly the same size as the flag that flew on Easter Sunday 1916.
