The winners of Team Limerick Clean-Ups TLC Loving Limerick Valentine’s competition were announced today in The Hunt Museum, as three primary school classes were awarded first place by the competition’s judges. The TLC Loving Limerick competition was launched in February by Munster and Ireland rugby legend Paul O’Connell and is part of the Team Limerick Clean Up initiative where primary schools all across the county were invited to design and decorate a giant love heart in order to create greater awareness of the importance of a clean Limerick all year round.
