An artistic Gaelscoil Charraig na Siuire pupil has been announced as the overall winner of  Carrick-on-Suir Lions Club's annual Peace Poster Contest.

Gaelscoil student Jack Shannon will be presented with first prize at a ceremony hosted by the Lions Club in December. A date and venue have yet to be fixed for the awards.

In the meantime, Jack's winning poster and the posters of all the runner up award winners are on display in Carrick-on-Suir Library.

Students from 11 other schools in Carrick-on-Suir and its surrounding rural communities entered the art contest, the them of which was "The Future of Peace".

Carrick Lions Club said the standard of entries was very high again this year and judges found it difficult to choose winners.
