Visit Waterford launches folklore initiative for local schools
đ Exciting News for Waterford Schools! đ
Visit Waterford has unveiled an exciting new folklore initiative as part of its 2025 campaign, aiming to collaborate with primary and secondary schools throughout Waterford City and County. This project invites students to delve into the myths, legends, and rich traditions of their local areas. Through research, interviews, and creative writing, participants will explore and document the storytelling heritage of Waterford, uncovering tales passed down through generations.â
Selected stories will be featured in a published folklore e-book on the Visit Waterford website and showcased during a special Culture Night event in September 2025. This initiative offers students a unique opportunity to connect with their local culture, foster community pride, and become young custodians of Waterfordâs folklore legacy.â
Schools interested in participating are encouraged to contact Clare at clare@visitwaterford.com for more information.
