20 schools in Kerry are to benefit from funding under the 2026 Climate Action Summer Works Scheme (CASWS).
It's part of €90 Million investment in school infrastructure, as announced by Minister Helen McEntee under the CASWS.
Of this, almost 300 (297) projects nationwide have been approved to share in the €30 million funding - for refurbishment of science labs to support the curricular redevelopment programme.
Under the scheme schools can undertake measures including insulation upgrades, LED lighting installation, and EV charging provision.
Schools in Killarney, Tralee, Castleisland, Kenmare, Listowel, Ballybunion and Killorglin are to benefit – a full list can be found below.
The funding has been welcomed by Children’s Minister and Kerry Fianna Fáil TD Norma Foley, Deputy Michael Cahill; Fine Gael Senator, Mike Kennelly; and Independent TD, Danny Healy-Rae.
