Embedded Files
Here in the village of Whakauka we are going to be exploring Conservation and why it is important we protect and care for our Native Ngaro Huruhuru (Bees) within the context of Design Technology.
Bees make more than just honey. Around 1/3 of what you eat is pollinated by bees and without them, these foods would simply cease to exist.
Bees face a number of threats including parasites, pathogens, pesticides and malnutrition as well as poor beekeeping practices and climate change.
Here in Aoetearoa, New Zealand we have 28 native species of bee, 27 of which are endemic which means they can only be found here which makes them especially rare and important to protect.
