Hi i'm very interested in your Bee Keeping for beginners course commencing 31st Jan. I was just wondering if the course would be suitable for my 9 year old daughter to attend with me, as if we do decide to go ahead and have a hive its something she would like to help & get involved with. If you think she would benefit /enjoy the course too, would it be another £125.00 for her fees? Many Thanks Kim
