Moo Baa Munch

Last Wednesday, our Agriculture students from Year 9 to 11 travelled to Downlands College in Toowoomba for Moo Baa Munch, an event hosted by AgForce School to Industry Partnership Program (SIPP). The event was a showcase of all things agriculture with representatives from many rural and regional organisations giving the students insight into a range of ag career opportunities. We split into two groups for the day and each group attended seven 30 minute sessions from a selection of presenters. Some of these included Bayer discussing pests and working in an insect laboratory, University of Queensland's Skills program, Cotton Australia, dairy farmers who were very interesting and gave out free flavoured milk, Mort and Co feedlots and Australian Country Choice. Many of the presenters had fun and interactive things for the students to do plus goodies to take home. This day provided a great opportunity for students to see a small snippet of a range of industries within agriculture in particular, opportunities for work experience and tertiary education.
