Ten PBKA members took the WBKA Basic Assessment on Sunday 21st August and we are delighted to report that all of the candidates passed with flying colours!
The WBKA Basic Assessment consists of two elements, practical and theoretical, to demonstrate a good level of understanding of the management of bees.
We would like to congratulate them all on their success, which was down to sheer dedication and hard work on their part, as well as a desire to be better beekeepers.
Well done indeed!
We are very proud of them all and hope to have more PBKA members enter the Basic Assessment next year!
Would PBKA members please note that tomorrow’s apiary meeting at Scolton, Sunday 21st August, is cancelled due to the whole day now being taken up with the Basic Assessment. Saturday’s scheduled assessments had to be cancelled due to the weather. We would like to wish all candidates the very best of luck!
