My uncle has a farm but I’ve only
been there once because it’s a long
way from my house. My brother
and I stayed there last summer
and we had a really enjoyable time.
I was thrilled to find out he had
bees. One day, we put on bee suits
and my uncle showed us how bees
make honey. It was fascinating to
learn about how they communicate
and tell each other where to find
flowers. Then they find their way
home again. I’d love to find out how
they do it, but I haven’t looked into
it yet. At some point, a bee got into
my brother’s suit. I’ve never seen
him jumping up and down like that
before. Luckily, it didn’t sting him.

The national team
Many of the Saudi Arabian National Football
team’s fans call it Al-Saqour which means ‘The
Falcons’ or ‘The Eagles’. They have been a
top team for years and they have won many
trophies. The Saudi Arabian National Football
team played their first match in 1957 and in
1994 they took part in the World Cup for the
first time. Since 1994, they have played in the
World Cup Finals four times and they have
won the Asian Cup three times. They have also
won the Gulf Cup of Nations three times and
the Arab Nations Cup twice. The Saudi Arabian
National team always play in green and white.
The Green Falcons’ best player ever was
Majed Abdullah. He was born in 1959 in
Jeddah and achieved great success during
his career as a football player. The ex-Saudi
Arabian football player has turned into a hero
for his country. His nickname was the Arabian
Pelé and he is the country’s top scorer with
89 goals from 1977 to 1994. Majed also scored
the first goal in an official match at King Fahd
International Stadium.
King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh
has been the home of the Green Falcons since
1987. It is one of the most beautiful stadiums
in the world, with a tent-like design to keep
most of the spectators out of the sun. It can
hold about 70,000 people and it is usually full,
especially for matches with the Green Falcons.
