The Hive needs your help! After conducting extensive research MI-Hive has discovered some very worrying facts. Firstly, the beetles within our grounds are disappearing at an alarming rate. Secondly, we have evidence that there is a group of scientists leading suspicious activities around the grounds!
We believe that the two are linked in some way although many questions remain unanswered: What are the scientists doing? Who exactly are they? And why are they being secretive? This is where you come in. We need a team of top spies to find out more. You will need to use high level espionage techniques and must remain undetected at all times. Your mission is to uncover the plot of this secret group and put a stop to it. Are you up to the task? Can you find out what's really going on before it's too late?
Please note that our daily itinerary is a guide, and some activities may need to be changed or rescheduled when circumstances occasionally make it difficult for us to run them, including poor weather. We’ll always do our best to offer enjoyable alternatives and, wherever possible, run the planned activity on an alternative day.
