AFTER a two year break, the annual festival of literacy and fun is being held in Presentation Secondary School Tralee this week.

Love Literature Week is a homage to all things literature-related and there’s a plethora of events for staff and students to enjoy.

The theme of the week is ‘Let Freedom Ring’ in honour of the people of Ukraine and the lifting of COVID restrictions.

Visitors during the week included local musician Seamus Harty, Shane Casey (Billy Murphy from ‘The Young Offenders’) who did a workshop with students, a young poet/writer E.R. Murray, neuro-diverse writer Carrie Jade Williams, Tony O’Callaghan who wrote ‘The Kerry Coast’ spoke to students and regular visitor poet Gabriel Fitzmaurice also took part.

Wednesday saw the annual Gala Fashion parade as staff and students strutted their stuff dressed as characters for a whole myriad of literacy (and celluloid) tales, while on Thursday some of the students were off to the cinema to see ‘Sing 2’. Another fantastic, fun and educational week then at the school. Scroll down for photos…
