Friday, May 30 marked the 10-year anniversary of Food and Fibre Careers Day, where students from all over the region could learn about careers in agriculture, horticulture, agtech, agribusiness and more.
The News reporter Pip Turton was on the scene in Dookie, chatting with students about their highlight of the day.
Amelia Reid — Greater Shepparton Secondary College student
This workshop (PawPrints) has been my favourite workshop so far, learning to do a Roberts Jones dressing has been interesting.
I’m not entirely sure if I want to be a vet.
Olivia Reid — Greater Shepparton Secondary College School student
Yeah, this one (PawPrints) has been really fun, we have decided to name our puppy Oscar.
Noah Kirby — Notre Dame College student
We got to eat some really good chicken, that’s been the highlight of my day.
Alex Jeffrey — Notre Dame College student
I've enjoyed seeing all the big machinery, especially the diesel-operated stuff.
Naomi Roberts — Wangaratta High School student
It was cool seeing how the other sheep followed the leader, ‘Goggles’.
Bethany Catanner — Wangaratta High School student
The dogs definitely stole the show for me.
