The Eurochild Anthology of Poetry and Art, now in its 14th year of publication, is to be launched by Minister Micheál Martin on Friday June 26th 09 in Cork City Hall.



The book is an insight into the concerns of children: their humour, sadness, wit, and sheer creativity.

This Festival will feature performances by:

  • Christ King Girls Primary School, Turner’s Cross who will perform following their recent success at this year’s choral festival.
  • Scoil Cholmchille C.B.S., Blarney Street. The students have formed a band – the School of Rock - and will get the whole place rocking.
  • Cork Arts Studio will do a number from the Suessical and a dance act.

In this, the International Year of Astronomy, what better way to mark the their creative endeavours than to celebrate the young stars of Europe who have been selected from over 9000 entries to feature in this Anthology.



It promises to be an exciting family event – all are welcome to join in the fun!
