Action Stations - Honeybee Helpers

 How can Year Rua help the bees? We brainstormed:

Room Rima - don’t wreck where they live.  Plant more flowers. Make a bee bath. Plant more seeds to grow flowers. Take care of the hive.  Don’t cut trees. Don’t pick flowers - we could do a video on YouTube or a poster. Don’t do windmill arms.  Share the flowers. Get a native bee home.

Room Iwa - Don’t throw rubbish into the beehives.  Plant more flowers or make a bee bath.  Take care of nature because that’s where they live.  Make a bee house full of flowers.  Put rubbish in the bin.  Don’t attack bees.  Plant lots of flowers.  Make a beehive for them.  Take care of the hive.  Don’t splash water on bees.

We decided to make bee baths:





"We have rosemary at home and the bees love it. We should put our bee bath by the rosemary" - Rosie Room Tekau

Room Tekau made posters to promote bee care:
