TRANSITION YEAR students of Ennis Community College and Gaelcholaiste an Chláir plan to host a sustainable Christmas market on Wednesday December 11 from 9am-6pm.

As part of their Young Social Innovators project the transition year students hope to help the people of Ennis celebrate the festive season but also make sustainable choices with a “Second chance at Christmas” market.

They plan to keep their unique Christmas market environmentally friendly by striving to ensure that all of the products available at the market are sustainable. From books, toys or clothes that have been donated to decorations made from upcycled materials by the students themselves.

There will also be a raffle, bake sale, Christmas jumper swap and much more on the day. All proceeds from this eco-conscious Christmas event will go to St. Vincent de Paul.

If you would like to donate please contact the transition year coordinator Martina McNamara at martina.mcnamara@eccdrive.com.
