Beekeepers
There’s a hive of activity at St Wilfrid’s! Last year we welcomed bees to the hives in St Wilfrid’s church and our group of very keen beekeepers have been looking after them weekly ever since, involved in every stage of the honey making process. Recently the children extracted the honey and beeswax from the hive and the bees must be very happy in their new home as they have produced a lot of honey, which will be sold at the Christmas fayre. We even entered a competition and achieved 3rd place in the beeswax category and were awarded a certificate of commendation in the honey event. Everyone in school has had a taste of the honey produced and we all agree – delicious!
