Beekeeping Club meets primarily during the summer term, when the weather is warm enough to inspect our two hives. It is open to pupils from all year groups who want to study the fascinating life cycle of the honey bee and develop their skills in beekeeping. Hamptonians learn about hive management which includes identifying the queen, looking for eggs and brood and ensuring the hives have sufficient food reserves.
We also collect a surplus of honey which we extract to produce our very own Hampton Honey.
