Representing ‘today’ for the ‘children of tomorrow

Local natural gas company, firmus energy, who recently installed natural gas fuel in the school, facilitated the project along with their contractor McNicholas Construction. Mount St Catherine’s principal, Mr Gildea explains: “Following a conversation between our vice principal and a member of the firmus energy team, this project came into fruition. The children and staff were very enthusiastic from the outset and collectively we decided what should be included that would represent ‘today’ for the ‘children of tomorrow’.

Converting to natural gas

Mount St Catherine’s switched to natural gas from oil in the summer of 2014. Mr Gildea continues: “We have around 235 pupils and a staff of approximately 40 of which 12 are teachers. The School made the decision to convert to natural gas as it is economically advantageous and also more environmentally-friendly, which is important to us and we are working towards attaining the green flag status as the school already has ‘eco-school’ standing.

Lovely to see the children’s excited faces

Michael Scott, managing director of firmus energy commented: “firmus energy was delighted to be involved with this project. It was lovely to see the children’s excited faces as the time capsule was lowered into the ground. I hope that firmus energy will be invited along 50 years into the future when the time capsule is being unearthed!

Converting to firmus energy

“Natural gas is proving a popular fuel option for schools across the province, who, like all businesses and organisations, are extremely cost conscious. By converting to firmus energy, they will make significant savings on their fuel bill each and every month.”

Great to be a part of history

Mike Caulfield, operations director for McNicholas Construction added: “It is great to be a part of history as we help firmus energy to bring natural gas to homes and businesses in more and more areas across the province. This project will help people to remember the time when this major infrastructure was new to the area and how life has changed in the years between now and 2064.”
