Year 6 in the hives for the first time

6/21/2018

 
Lovely morning spent with our Y6 beekeepers today. Smashing weather, lovely bees and really great children!  The children checked our 'towering hive 1' (which we need a step ladder to reach it is so high with Supers!) and our 'old Queen' with her artificial swarm.  Both colonies are doing well, especially hive 1, which has almost 2 supers of capped honey we need to extract as the bees are running out of room!  
It is wonderful to see the journey of all our young beekeepers, who quietly, respectfully and confidently look after our bees, if our children are anything to go by, the future of beekeeping is in safe hands! Well done Y6!
