School Incursions
Pollinating classrooms with knowledge about bees, beekeeping, and the importance of pollinators in our ecosystem.
Rooftop Bees runs specially designed bee educational workshops and experiences for children. These unique, fun, and engaging sessions provide children with a practical understanding of bees, their role in the environment, and the products derived from beekeeping.
The sessions are specially designed to suit the respective age group of the children and we can tailor specific learning outcomes on consultation with teachers prior to the session.
All sessions provide an introduction to the amazing world of bees and feature a range of practical hands-on components to create a unique hands-on, interactive, engaging and sensory experience.
We also have an observation hive which can be safely brought into the classroom to show real working bees!

"The Rooftop Bees team are professional, with a wealth of knowledge when it came to sharing the importance of bees and beekeeping with the children. The session was creative and the interactive set up was inviting and engaging for the children. We highly recommend this incursion as it provides children a wonderful learning platform to understand bees, and to appreciate the important job they have on Earth."

"The children were extremely excited to observe bees up close and the Rooftop Bees team explained everything clearly so the children could understand at their own pace. Everything was very well prepared and there were lots of things for the children to touch, smell and taste. Pouring honey into their own jars to take home was a real highlight. We all had a great time with the beekeepers and bees!"

"We loved having Rooftop Bees join us in our preschool room for the morning. The beekeeper provided an amazing hands on and interactive experience that allowed the children to share their knowledge and extend their learning in an age appropriate way. The session was engaging, encouraging and really made a positive impact on our children. Thank you Rooftop Bees!"
