Sunday the 12th May saw members of the bee team at Heron Hill primary school in Kendal host the first of the summer outdoor training meetings for Kendal bee keepers. The sun shone brightly as the children from the advanced team presented the golden rules of beekeeping to over 20 experienced bee keepers from the local area. The key message from the six children aged 9 -11 was 'love your bees' and this was most evident as the children carefully, confidently and skillfully carried out full inspections on 3 of the 5 hives currently in the school apiary. Peter Wright, committee member of Kendal bee keepers, said 'what a wonderful day with so many knowledgeable young children. I for one was very impressed'. We were so proud of our beekeeping children!
