Whether they liked them savory or sweet - it was a fantastic treat for pupils and staff on Tuesday as they tucked into pancakes.

It was a flipping great day all around as the St Oliver's National School Parents Association prepared pancakes for everyone!

The children were thrilled and many of the teachers too. They were spoilt for choice with the many toppings to dress their pancakes in their own unique way.

"Some of our teachers gave a helping hand and showed off their flipping skills!" Deputy Principal Sandra Chute told the Killarney Advertiser.

"We are thankful to have such a wonderful Parents Association who kindly gave up their day and to KASI who prepared pancakes for the school also. Everyone agreed that they were yummy!"
