Esperienza Carsolina – save the bees
During our CAS Esperienza Carsolina we learn about all things bees:
- their life cycle
- the different types of bees that live in a hive
- how honey is made
- their essential role as pollinators
- their importance in ecosystems
We do this by sharing our newly acquired knowledge with local primary school children aged 8-10, who visit us in our ESS labs once a week during term time. We also visit a local beekeeper and his hives twice a year: in late summer, for a last glimpse of honey and a honey tasting; and in spring, when their busy life resumes after the winter break.
We want to bring experiential learning and the impact of our UWC mission for a sustainable future outside our College walls and into the local community!
