This Annual Laurel Hill Schools Spring/Summer Fashion Show is run by the Parents Advisory Council of Laurel Hill Secondary School and Laurel Hill Coláiste.

The event welcomes family and friends of both schools and has been running for 47 years. It is the largest school fashion show in Munster, attracting an audience of over 500 people to the event each year.

A total of 36 fifth-year students will model ball gowns from Dani’s Closet and sportswear from So Hockey. Some of the male teachers will return to the catwalk by popular demand to model fashion from Sexton’s Menswear.
