Mr. and Mrs. Bob Robison and Mr. Paul Bradshaw visited North Strabane Intermediate School to teach all of the fifth grade students about bees. Each of the presenters raises honey bees as a hobby. The presenters brought in all of their equipment and let the students try on the outfit and identify the beekeeper's tools. Also, information was shared about the importance of pollination to growing healthy crops. The students made lip balm from beeswax, viewed a live observation hive, and enjoyed a slide presentation on how our economy is affected by bees. Here are some pictures of our fun day when we learned about honey bees.
