Bizzy Bees
Whaea Clare asked Sylvana, from Seaside Bees, to come and speak to some of the Year 3 and 4 classes because they were learning about bees. Seaside Bees rent and manage urban beehives and give a lot of their time spreading the word about bees at schools, garden clubs, garden centres and community groups.
Sylvana bought along a piece of an actual working bee hive! There were bees, honey still in its wax comb, and bee larvae and eggs. Somehow everything the students had been learning about bees made a whole lot more sense (and got even more interesting) when they got to see the real thing!
Ngā mihi tino aroha ki a koe Sylvana.
