Transition year students from Glenart College in Arklow were beaming with pride when they presented €1,000 raised at their Easter Fair to Arklow Cancer Support volunteers.
Featuring a variety of stalls with baked goods, plank and wall-sit challenges, and bunny rabbit petting, the joyous event saw students showcase their creativity, hard work, individual talents, and sales skills. Neighbouring primary schools were also invited to attend the event and enjoyed it thoroughly.
Describing the students pride at donating to Arklow Cancer Support, a Glenart spokesperson said: 'A big thanks to the teachers, Ms D Comerford, Ms C Fleming, Ms L Gibbons and Ms O Keane, for organising the event and an extended thanks to all members of staff in the school and the community who supported the event for a very worthy cause.
'Also, thanks to our sponsors Joanne's Cafe, Dolco Engineering, Enhanced Beauty, Coffe4You, Topline Bolands, Armstrong Life Pharmacy and JR Creations.'
