Novice Shearing Oct 2026

Not everyone’s cut out for the nine to five, and for many of your students life on a farm might as well be another planet, but it doesn’t have to be. This shearer tasting day provides an introduction to sheep shearing, and a career many of your students may not have contemplated before. Led by experienced Australian Wool Innovation (AWI) Instructors, this course is a hands-on, practical day that takes you through every step in the wool harvesting process.

Mission
Vision
Agricultural Training
Improve your performance on the farm, and the profitability of your agri-business.
No matter how much experience you have, there’s always something new to learn.
We bring expertise and practitioners together in an environment where knowledge can be transferred, and skills can be learned in a real working farm. Unbelievably useful, and unfortunately all too rare.
School Excursions
Expand your students horizons, and totally blow their minds.
Everyone remembers their first time on a farm. That’s why we’ve opened the doors to all of those future agriculturists out there, who perhaps don’t even know it as yet. Whether your students are already studying agriculture, or not, we’ll give them an experience they’ll never forget.
My grandfather used to say that once in your life you need a doctor, a lawyer, a policeman, and a preacher. But every day, three times a day, you need a farmer.”
