The Biology, Earth and Environmental Sciences (BEES) Day is an annual event that showcases some of the exciting career choices and opportunities in science. It is designed to increase students’ awareness of real science jobs and encourage them to consider science pathways when selecting subjects at high school.

Home Education WA attended the BEES day in both 2023 and 2024, which were excellent and has once again, registered as a 'school' for 25 students to attend.

There is very limited space in the lecture rooms, so it will be ideal for 'most' parents to drop off for this event. If you choose to 'drop and leave', please ensure you are contactable throughout the day.

The event is run at Curtin University, Kent st, Bentley
The date is Friday 5 September, 9:30am-2.00pm
There are four interactive Science-based sessions run over the duration of the day
