The Story of the Bee
The symbolic representation of our bee comes from the beautiful tiles that live on the roof of this historic building. It began its life etched into a tile in Marseille, France, commissioned for government buildings all over the world. From there it started a wild adventure across Europe, Australia and to the very ends of the earth, where in came to rest on the roof above our heads.
We have kept this symbol close to remind us of our past, our present and something that is sacred, seasonal and also to beware of...a respect and awakening to the importance of looking after what we have.
