The 4th class students from St Anne’s primary school, Rathkeale, Co. Limerick were crowned ultimate winners of the Eurospar’s sponsored ‘Classroom Kouture’ competition with their design entitled, ‘Lunch in Bloom’.
Earlier this year, Eurospar supermarkets and Junk Kouture, called on budding fashionistas, creative kids, and climate activists in primary schools across Ireland to think of an inspiring story, collect waste materials, and create one Junk Kouture design.

The vibrant, short-front, long-train dress is inspired by school lunches and features flowers crafted from face masks, Carambola lunch bags, and fabric.
Local Limerick Eurospar Rathkeale retailer, Derek Downes, presented the €1,000 prize fund to St Anne’s Primary school, much to their delight.
“This wonderful competition was a Eurospar exclusive where each supermarket invited their local primary schools to take part,” said Claire O’Brien, marketing manager, Eurospar.
This was the only initiative bringing Junk Kouture to primary schools across Ireland. According to O’Brien, they received entries from all over Ireland and the entry from St Anne’s Primary School in Rathkeale blew them away.
