PRESENTATION Secondary School Tralee held its annual school mass on Friday last, attended by Presentation sisters to mark Presentation Day.

Following on from the mass, a special celebration was held in the secondary school for the Presentation sisters to mark the Year of Consecrated Life and to thank the Presentation sisters for their dedication to the Presentation Secondary school down through the years.

Special candles had been commissioned to mark the occasion and were presented to Sr. Maureen Guerin and Sr. Mary McMahon for the Convent Chapel by Transition year students Aoife Dillane and Elizabeth Meehan.

Flowers for the Altar were presented to Sr. Grace Foley. Each sister received an individual candle to mark the day.
