A group of talented students from Deele College are celebrating this weekend after securing a Silver Ticket which means they will now go through to the Regional Finals of Junk Kouture.
Junk Kouture is a national contest which encourages young designers in second level education to create striking couture designs and impressive works of wearable art from everyday junk that would normally find its way into the bin.
Junk Kouture aims to inspire and ignite passion in these teenagers while at the same time subtly educating them about the importance of recycling and reusing waste.
Bank of Ireland are one of the main sponsors for Junk Kouture, and BOI employee Emma McCarron delivered the Silver Ticket to the overjoyed team.
The team are called Team Transparency and have been assisted by there teacher Patrice Gallagher.
The team will now look forward to the Regional Finals in Derry next month.
