Beekeeping Success
Published by Godstowe School on Tuesday 16th of December 2025
The Godstowe beekeeping club had a busy Autumn Term.
Back in October, we entered two of this season's jars of honey from our Godstowe Hive into the National Honey Show, along with some poems and beeswax candles that the girls had made in one of the club's sessions. We came away with the following awards at the show:
First place in the Schools Apiary Honey category
First place for Ria's calligram poem, 'My bees'
Second place for Carlotta's calligram poem, 'My bees'
Second place for Ophelia's decorative candles
Third place for Carlotta's decorative candles
We also hosted the High Wycombe Honey Show at Godstowe in October and Sophie was awarded 'Best in Show Judges' Award' along with two first prize awards for her candles and poems.
