THE Compton Primary schoolgrounds will come alive with livestock in the coming weeks as upper primary students join the Cows Create Careers program.
The South Australian Dairyfarmers’ Association initiative will be delivered at 35 schools across the state, creating an awareness of dairy industry careers with students through hands-on activities.
Compton Primary School students will care for two calves, which will remain on the school’s property during the program.
Focused around an industry-based curriculum, local dairy farmers will visit students and teach them how to care for the calves with an industry advocate also participating, educating students on career pathways into the dairy lifestyle.
