Our New Australian Native Stingless Bee Hive

Thanks to the very generous Kandel family from Prep, the school now has our first beautiful Australian Native Bee Hive. These bees do not sting, although they can give you a little bite if you disturb their hive. The hive is located in a tree between the hall and the library, a nice shady spot for the bees and a great spot for teachers and students to observe and appreciate the bees. While European honey bees are important, our Australian native bees are critically important to the pollination of our native plants and trees and are an essential part of our fragile ecosystems.

Please show your children the hive and explain how they are important and to take good care of them by only looking with their eyes and not touching.
