The school has established a wildflower meadow and they have hives keeping honeybees. Their beekeeping mentor is teacher Emma Turner-Bone.

The pupils are already selling honey from their first harvest and are busy making candles for school fairs. 

The winners will be announced in a ceremony at Liverpool Cathedral on 17th November. The BBKA is thrilled that they are getting this recognition. -ends-
