At the end of Summer Term, First Form pupils were studying the importance of bees and other pollinating insects in their Science lessons. As part of a larger, nationwide conservation effort, pupils were set the challenge of designing and creating their own bee hotels in their gardens at home.

This not only provided a more practical-based learning opportunity during the lockdown period but also gave pupils the chance to get involved in a critical conservation project to help increase the numbers of these important biological species. The photo above is a picture of the excellent bee hotel that Grace Manning-Greene (Second Form) created.
