St. Bartholomew Sixth-grade Beekeepers
Beeswag2012
In 2012, Sixth graders at St. Bartholomew did a project on Colony Collapse Disorder. They were asked to analyze the significance of bees and this tragic problem so that you can produce a web site that educates the public. Hyperlinks towards top two winners tend to be above.
Exactly what have actually they been up to since? consider, that this is a unique pair of pupils each year.
In 2013, they purchased a hive plus the springtime of 2014 included a honey super. The bees stored a full super of honey in 2014, together with young ones removed and bottled the honey. They used 8-ounce containers by means of an angel, and offered the angels on Church Fall Festival. They made enough cash to shop for another hive, which will be now being constructed because of the next course of fifth graders becoming involved in the task. The teacher has suggested putting the newest hive in a different place so that the students could make a comparison between a hive in city versus one in the united states. Contact Tony Gaudin, if you are interested in volunteering to greatly help aside.
