Cathal Boylan of Cavan County Council arranged for Dale Treadwell to come into the school on Monday 25th to do a workshop on pollinators.
The children watched a short video on importance of bees and they had a look at some mini beasts through a bug viewer.
They also played a game of Bat and Moth outside which was great fun. 
Dale planted some bee pollinator plants with the children in our garden.
They planted a Butterfly Bush also know as a Buddleia, a Foxglove and a Delphinium
