Helping the bees

This afternoon the Leopards thought of ways to encourage the bees to our school grounds. They decided to make bee hotels for solitary bees and to plant wild flowers for the bees to pollinate. In order to prepare for sowing the seeds, we clearer and started to turn over the soil. The Leopards worked incredibly hard and made a fantastic start.
