Homeschool Bee Program

$55.00

A fun, hands-on learning adventure for homeschoolers

2.5–3 hour hands-on beekeeping workshop for homeschoolers (ages 5–12). Real bees, real honey — an immersive nature & sustainability experience at our working farm.

Details:
• Duration: Approx. 2.5–3 hours (depending on hive activity & group size)
• Recommended ages: 5–12 years (max 6 children per session, or up to 8 on request)
• Group booking at base price: AU$55 per child (for 4–6 children).
• What to bring: closed-toe shoes/gumboots, sun-safe clothing, water bottle, and a curious mind! Protective suits provided.
• Location: The Werombee Hive, 1170 Werombi Road, Theresa Park NSW

Please ensure that you book for each child and fill in their details in the booking form.

What You’ll Learn:

  • What bees are and why they matter

  • Types of bees in a hive

  • Bee safety and respect

  • How a beehive works and bee communication

  • How to be a Bee friend

Please Note:

This experience involves close interaction with live bees in a working hive environment. Safety is our top priority, and you will be provided with all necessary protective equipment, including child-sized protective bee suits. A parent or responsible adult must accompany all children at all times during the session. Stuart will guide you through each step to ensure a comfortable and safe experience. We encourage calm and curious behaviour around the hive to keep both our young beekeepers and our bees safe and happy! While we make every effort to ensure the bees are calm and manageable, participants should feel comfortable working with live insects. No prior beekeeping experience is required, but an interest in nature and sustainability will enhance your experience.
