Zur RegionNature parks in Lower Austria
The “Holly School Bees” project originally began as an optional subject in collaboration with the Hollenstein Beekeepers’ Association. Since the 2020/21 school year, pupils at the NMS Hollenstein Nature Park School have been immersing themselves in the fascinating world of bees, gaining first-hand insight into life in the hive and how honey is made.
The project is currently based at the LFS Hohenlehen Nature Park School. There, three bee colonies provide a living learning environment right on site. Even without a dedicated elective course, practical work with the bees remains a valuable part of everyday school life.
Ecological relationships are taught in a clear and practical way – from the interaction between flowers and bees to the extraction of the ‘golden treasure’, honey.
“Holly School Bees” stands for sustainability, a sense of responsibility and environmental education in action – right on the school premises.
“Holly School Bees” honey is available at the town hall and at the “Braubogen” regional shop.
By purchasing this high-quality regional product, you not only enjoy delicious honey from our region, but also support valuable projects in the nature park schools.
Every jar helps to promote environmental education, sustainability and practical work with bees in the long term.
This is what commitment to nature and the future tastes like.
If you sow flowers, you’ll have bees as welcome visitors
