BeeAware

Stages 1 and 2 Science and Technology

The BeeAware program identifies, describes and explains the importance of pollinators in our natural, built and agricultural environments. The program offers a hands-on experience into native bees and other pollinators, as well as the agricultural significant European honey bee.

The hands-on part of the program allows students to rob a hive (without the stings) and make a healthy honey smoothie while learning about the complex organisation of the social bee world.

Furthermore, students will use their creative minds to create a 'pollinator hotel' out of renewable materials and then find an appropriate location for it within the school's grounds.

Incursion or excursion – 2 hour program

Please call to discuss costing as it is dependent on a number of factors.
