FMG Junior Young Farmer of the Year finals competition

Two St Paul's Collegiate School teams competed in the grand final of the FMG Junior Young Farmer of the Year on Friday. The grand final included an exam, a speech, practical sessions (in the pouring rain!), and a quiz night. Although St Paul's did not get a top placing, the teams are proud of their efforts in a tough competition with over 800 contestants! Well done to our representatives Benjamin Allen (Year 13) and Alex Purdie (Year 13) and Kate Morton (Year 13), and Finn Morton (Year 9).

Also, congratulations to Liam Hodgson, who took out the AgriKidsNZ Grand Champions title in his team, The RD Sixer’s. Liam will join his brother Aidan Hodgson (Year 10) at St Paul's next year.
