We’re all enjoying some delicious St. Patrick’s Day–themed biscuits today in Abbeyfeale College of FET — a huge thank you to one of our fabulous ELC learners, Alexandra, for creating and sharing these fabulous goodies! 💚🤍🧡
They’ve definitely brought an extra bit of celebration (and sugar!) to our day!

On Friday, 27th February, the ELC Stage 1 learners had the pleasure of welcoming a special guest speaker, Christina Hardy. Christina is a Limerick-based nutritional therapist and the author of “Colourful Foods and Activities for my Body and Mind,” a children’s book that encourages healthy habits, positive attitudes toward nutrition, and an understanding of how food, movement, and mindfulness support overall wellbeing.
During her visit, Christina shared valuable insights from her work supporting families and young people in developing lifelong healthy habits.
We are very grateful to Christina for taking the time to speak with our group and for inspiring our future early years practitioners with practical ideas they can bring into their professional practice.
