Description

Buzz into the Base this School Holidays for free activities.  Learn all about bees - and why it's so important to be a bee buddy and make honey slime to take home.

Bees are key to the food we eat and the continuation of the life we love.  Join us to learn more about these little guys, how they make honey and more amazing facts before making some honey-themed slime to take home.  Take your knowledge home to bee a hero in your own backyard.

 

HONEY SLIME WORKSHOPS | 10AM - 2PM DAILY | THE ATRIUM

Join our workshops - starting on the hour and half hour - to make squishy, stretchy, honey slime to take home.*  Places are limited and are first-in-first-served - no bookings will be taken.  Sessions start at 10am, 10.30am, 11am, 11.30am, 12pm, 12.30pm, 1pm and 1.30pm and last for approximately 20 minutes.

Don't forget to take a photo at our photowall - we'd love to see your bee-utiful pics!

FOLLOW THE BEE LINE | RETAIL OPENING HOURS | AROUND TE AWA

Collect an entry form/map from the Honey Slime Workshop site (between 10am and 2pm) or Customer Service (any time during retail opening hours).  Follow the Beeline and spot the five honeycomb floor decals around Te Awa to learn more about bees and how you can save them (because we really REALLY should!).  Complete the worksheet with the answers and return to Customer Service to receive a colour pack containing flower seeds (ideal for bees) and a pack of coloured pencils.*
