Ms O’Keeffe’s class were busy doing lots of learning this week based on the book “The Very Hungry Caterpillar”!

At the end of their unit of learning, Ms O’Keeffe arrived into the classroom with a big bag of delicious food for the children to try - more than enough food to make the very hungry caterpillar very jealous of such a great indoor picnic! ❤️🍰🍪🍓🍩

Thank you, Ms O’Keeffe, for always bringing learning to life! We really do have the best teachers in Ireland❤️🥰
