The Singleton Beef and Land Management CATTLE EDUCATION DAY will be held on Friday 21st June 2024.

Our sponsor for this event is GLENCORE Australia. 

This event is designed to educate students on different aspects of the beef industry. Aiming to  provide  avenues  for  students  to  practice  and  apply  knowledge  acquired  from  their agricultural studies in  the  selection  of beef cattle.  Students from 6 – 18 years of age and attending school are eligible to attend. On this day there will be workshops for the students to attend that relate to the beef industry.

 

We have have also taken a creative new approach to our annual Education Day by providing on-line digital Presentations!

Thanks to funding provided by Glencore, we have developed a series of free virtual lessons for all to use in the classroom or at home.

These PowerPoint presentations cover topics of pastures, feeding and tracing cattle and poultry.
