Beekeeper visit

Thadhal Mrs agus Mr Carstairs oirnn an t-seachdain seo agus sheall iad dhuinn beehive agus mar a tha e ag obair. Bha e gu math inntinneach agus fhuair sinn blasad de mil cuideachd. Bha e blasta.
We had a visit from Mr and Mrs Carstairs this week. Mrs Carstairs is a beekeeper and she showed us how to build a bee hive and also we got a taste of some delicious honey. It was very interesting and helped us to understand how important bees are to the food environment and also how busy they are all their lives for just a half teaspoon of honey from each one! There are as many as 60,000 bees in one hive and if the Queen bee is lost or dies they sometimes have to send for a new Queen bee.
Tha sinn cuideachd air a bhith trang ann an teicneòlas a’ cruthachadh taighean airson eòin.
We have also been busy in Science and technology creating bird boxes.

Our parents came to visit us also for our parent afternoon and we shared some of our learning with them, we played Education City addition games and also did some weighing
