Year 10 Agriculture Visit Tobruk Sheep Station

Last Wednesday, 17 September, Year 10 Agriculture students visited Tobruk Sheep Station to gain more knowledge on the wool and meat sheep industry that they had been learning about throughout Term 3. The students had the opportunity to take part in a great range of activities at the Station including sheep shearing, making damper, heating up the billy, cracking whips, rounding up the sheep, arm wrestles and throwing boomerangs. One of our students was also dressed up like a sheep shearer while shearing a sheep.

Excursions such as Year 10’s visit to Tobruk Sheep Station give students a hands on learning experience, providing great resources that relate to their current theory and on-campus work. In this case, the excursion has provided greater knowledge around the wool growth of the new Terra Sancta College lamb, Bambi!
