FIELD TRIP TO HONEYBEE CENTRE

Educating our community and beyond is something everyone at Honeybee Centre is passionate about. Since our first hive got busy (a long, long time ago), we’ve been offering interactive presentations and tours to share the magical world of bees with everyone we can.
Our amazing Honeybee Centre Classroom provides a fun and educational environment to really experience bees! Our program, which is aligned the the BC Curriculum, covers topics like bees, life-cycle, beekeeping, pollination, environmental stewardship and more! Each lesson is paired with interactive activities (bees don’t sit still and neither do students!) and includes bee friendly flower seed planting for student to take home.
We finish the visit with honey tasting and a walk past our inside observation hive.
