Bees AT CRAMOND: Safety and protecting them

At Cramond Primary, we are lucky enough to have many bees that live on our playground! Maybe you’ve seen some of them! Below are a few that P3I has seen and identified. Bumble Bees Mason Bees Honey Bees

You may have noticed bees on the playground, near the log steps and rocks. They are called mason bees. They will not hurt you, and they are important pollinators! They are a type of solitary bee (they don’t build nests, but burrow holes). Mason bees look like this:

Our topic this term in P3 is Minibeasts. We’ve been studying bees, and how important they are for our environment. We have noticed that many children and parents seem to be frightened of the mason bees that are near the log steps, and we want to tell you not to afraid!

Why do we need bees? Bees are pollinators! Plants need help to grow, breed, and produce food. Humans need food! 30% of the world’s crops and 90% of wild plants need pollinators (bees) to thrive! Without bees, we wouldn’t have a lot of foods. Here are a just few that would disappear without bees:

Biodiversity (lots of different plant and Why do we need bees? Biodiversity (lots of different plant and animal life in the world) makes the world a healthy place. Loads of other plants and animals rely on having bees in their habitat to live! Badgers, foxes, bears, mice, and other animals eat entire nests – bees and all! The Crab Spider The Bee-Eater Dragonflies

Bees are in danger! Bee colonies are collapsing and wild honey bee populations in North America and Europe are in decline. Why is this? Changes in farming practices. Wildflower meadows have been ploughed up to make space for fields. (Bees need wildflowers!) 2. Pesticide use (the chemicals we put on plants to make them grow) has increased massively. 3. People are trading bees around the world and spreading diseases.

How can we safely live with bees and protect them? Leave bees and wasps alone. If you leave them alone, they will leave you alone. 2. Don’t swat or stomp on a bee. 3. Plant nectar and pollen rich flowers! Bees love the flowers below. 4. Leave areas of your garden undisturbed to build a nest. Or build a bee hotel for them! 5. Raise awareness about protecting bees.

P3 Built Bee and Bug Hotels!

Thank you for watching our sentation. Protect our bees! #CRAMONDCARES
