Ahane National School announces details for a gala fundraising fashion show

A showcase of fashion and local craft will take place next month in front of a capacity crowd at the Castletroy Park Hotel for the inaugural Ahane National School Fashion Show which was launched this week.

Produced in association with the Holman Lee Agency, the Ahane National School Fashion Show takes place on Thursday, October 13 at the Castletroy Park Hotel and will feature new Autumn/Winter collections from a host of local stores and a shopping experience for guests with local craft, retail, and jewelry makers in attendance.

Limerick City and County Council have joined forces to support local craft-makers. ‘Made in Limerick’Collective who will exhibit a variety of handmade goods, fine arts, design, ceramics and textiles, as well as jewelry, natural skincare products, wood, painting, and many other items at the event.

Speaking at the launch, Siobhan Kennedy, Ahane National School Principal said, “There’s a great buzz of excitement in the school for the upcoming fashion show at the Castletroy Park Hotel and we are delighted to have a team of dedicated and hardworking parents who have organised what promises to be a fantastic night on Thursday, October 13.

“We were successful in our funding application to the Department of Education and Skills earlier this year to upgrade our backyard in the school and now we’re looking forward to enhancing this space with some new playground facilities for sports and yard games. We have exciting plans for the further development of our school grounds, and we know this fundraising will go a long way to helping us achieve that goal.”

Ahane National School’s staff, parents, and students will also walk the catwalk with the professionals from Holman Lee Agency. Tickets are selling fast.

“We are very conscious of the cost of living at the moment, but we know we’ve put together a great value evening and a superb night’s entertainment so ensure you get your tickets before they sell out!” said Laura Ryan, Ahane NS Fashion Show Committee.

“We know that every cent raised will be put towards developing the school grounds for our children and for generations to come. We’d like to thank the Holman Lee Agency, Castletroy Park Hotel, the Council, and all the local stores and stall owners who are taking part and particularly those businesses in our local communities of Ahane, Castleconnell, Castletroy, Annacotty, Murroe, and Newport who have been so generous with raffle prizes and sponsorship. We know it will be a super night that is open to all to attend and we’re very excited about it.”

A prosecco reception is also planned prior to the show, which starts at 7pm. Fashion spectacles start at 8pm. As many as 300 people are expected to attend.

Tickets to the fashion show cost €20.
