The children of 5th and 6th class have finished their Bee Booster Boxes and they sold out within 24hrs! We made 108 boxes in total and have raised over €1300 for our chosen charities (Focus Ireland, DSPCA and FOE).

The children put a HUGE amount of work into this project over the 7 months as part of the Junior Entrepreneur Programme. We would not have been able to get this done without the help of Joe Blair, who put a huge amount of time and effort into the BBBs. Joe sourced our wood and plants and was an amazing project manager. With thanks to Joe, we were able to create wonderful boxes from scratch and raise a huge amount of money.

Thank you Joe from all of us in 5th and 6th class.

The children had a great learning experience and really enjoyed the project from start to finish. It is refreshing to see such passion for the environment and creative ideas from children so young. Well done to you all, you’re an inspiration for all of us.

Thank you to everyone for supporting this great cause and for making such generous donations. I hope the boxes brighten up your homes and you get lots of bee visitors!
