Ross Cochrane from Biodiversity in schools visited our school for a Biodiversity workshop. We learned about the trees and hedgerows in our school along with lots of facts on insect and animals. We had fun learning and exploring with Ross!

2nd class have been learning all about bees. We had a visit from a parent who is a bee keeper. He taught us all about keeping bees and making honey! We created some art work about bees!
SuperValu want to help local communities, schools and families lead the way in creating an Ireland where pollinators can thrive. SuperValu launched their Save the Bees campaign in an effort to raise awareness of the importance of pollinators and to support the local biodiversity in communities around Ireland. The campaign aims to educate and empower school children to make a difference.
Ay Boyerstown school, we will be learning all about the importance of bees and their role in Biodiversity. We will be creating our very own wildflower patch to help our bees pollinate with our Pollinator Packs from Supervalu Tidy Towns. To further promote awareness and action, families will receive their own Save the Bees cards in SuperValu with every spend over €30. These cards are added to each school’s Save the Bees poster, which, once completed, can be entered into a draw to win a share of €50,000 for the school. Through the Save the Bees campaign, SuperValu will work with schools and communities across Ireland to help educate people on the very real and current threat facing Ireland’s bees. As it stands, nearly one-third of Irish bees are in danger of becoming extinct. The loss of such a large portion of our bee population would be catastrophic.
