Thank you from Dr John Roberts

29 June 2023

I would like to say a big thank you to everyone who came along to the beehive maintenance and pest inspection workshop on Saturday, 17 June and the local community members who supported me.

It was a great day of learning both in the ‘classroom’ and in the field. It is always a pleasure to meet with the beekeeping community on Norfolk Island. I hope those who attended found it useful and interesting. If you have any additional questions, or if you were unable to make the workshop, please reach out to NIbiosecuirty@infrastructure.gov.au. The team can provide you with the workshop presentation and/or put you in contact with myself. Some of the bee keepers who attended also have additional materials on island.

I am looking forward to seeing Norfolk Island bees staying healthy and strong!

This workshop was funded by the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts.
