The First Year Business classes had a great time on their trip when they travelled to Dublin and went to Butlers Chocolate Factory and then to Liffey Valley shopping centre afterwards. They had great fun as they got to discover how chocolate is made and where and when it was invented. They got a tour of the factory and museum and then got to paint their very own chocolate teddy bears. They got many different samples of different chocolate and also watched a video about the history of Butlers Chocolate Factory. We also want to thank all the teachers who arranged the trip and to Butlers for the amazing experience.
