Funds left over after completion of the library will be used for a sensory room at Salesians Primary School

Salesian Primary School in Fernbank, Limerick City have launched the Salesian Primary School Fashion Show 2022 to fundraise for completing their new library and other crucial school projects including a much-needed sensory space. The Fashion show will take place on Thursday, October 20 at 7:30pm at the Limerick Strand Hotel and the fashion extravaganza will be produced by the Holman Lee Agency.
Speaking at the launch, Principal Claire Rea said, “The school is filled with a great buzz of excitement for the upcoming fashion show. We are incredibly fortunate to have such hardworking and involved parents who have organised what promises to be a night of wonderful entertainment on October 20. After two years of few school events, we are looking forward to seeing all of the fashions take to the runway on the night.”
As part of the fun, some parents and staff of Salesian Primary School will have the opportunity to step into the limelight on the catwalk alongside the professionals of the Holman Lee Agency.
It is hoped this event will raise enough funds to continue the refurbishment of the library while the remaining funds will be used to create a sensory room. This is the second time the school has held a Salesian Primary School Fashion show event and it happens after two years of not being able to fundraise or come together as a school community, so the excitement is palpable.
With Holman Lee models and the very best of Midwest-based fashions and designers, it promises to be a great event for the city.
“We are delighted to launch this event, which we hope will be a real highlight on the calendar. We know the funds raised will be put to very good use in developing and improving our school for generations to come. We’d like to thank the Holman Lee agency, The Strand, and all of the wonderful stores who are taking part,” said Anna Walsh, Chair of Salesian Fashion Show Committee.
Tickets for the Salesian Primary School Fashion show are €20 each and a full evening of entertainment will be provided.
Tickets are available from the school or on Eventbrite HERE
