About
How much simpler would life be for you as a parent if all your child’s activities could be in one place, scheduled in one block of time? And even more importantly, that this is the place where your child thrives and grows – socially, emotionally, creatively, musically and intellectually. Welcome to Bee-School! Hive’s premium creative learning program for 3 – 6 yr olds.
Hive’s innovative Bee-School program is unique and designed to help give your child the best quality creative arts education in an easy-access format. During Bee-School your child will enjoy playful, interactive classes in music, drama, art, dance, school readiness and Spanish where they’ll learn alongside expert teachers, musicians, actors and artists, and grow in skill and confidence.

Eloquent Bees | 3-5yrs
Spanish | Art | Kindermusik
3 hours | $45
Communication, empathy and confidence are key strengths for any child to develop. In our Eloquent Bees program, your child has the opportunity to not only learn to communicate in another language, but also to broaden their minds to other cultures.
Children who learn a second language in their early years develop advanced communication skills because they learn to look for a wide range of communication cues like facial expression and body language rather than solely relying on words.
Your little Bee will laugh, play, move and sing their way through learning Spanish, they’ll get their hands busy making beautiful art works, and they’ll find their singing voice as they move, sing and play in our music class.
Session format:
- Spanish 45 min
- Snack break 15 min
- Music Movers 45 min
- Fine Art 60 min
- Storytime & pickup 15 min
Clever Bees | 4-5yrs
Brain Buzz | Art: Designer Bees | Music Masters
3 hours | $45
When you think of getting your child “school ready” most people immediately think: alphabet, workbooks and flashcards!
The Brain Buzz class develops muscle strength, and brain-body coordination in key areas through fun games and movement activities. The Music Masters class increases a child’s capacity to listen and remember and to recognize patterns – through joyful hands-on tuned musical instrument play using recorders, violins, piano, ukulele and xylophone. In our Designer Bees class, kids enjoy working on a project each term where they design and make a full playset out of colourful clay to take home and play with, all whilst strengthening their fine motor control.
