Wil & Brock Brown
Wil & Brock Brown
Year 10 students, Will and Brock Brown, demonstrated exceptional stockmanship at the recent local show, achieving remarkable results across multiple sheep categories. The twins stood out in the competition, taking first place in the single class pen and securing second place in the group pen division. Their dedication to raising quality livestock paid off at the auction, where their sheep achieved top price at the sale. This outstanding achievement reflects not only the boys' commitment to agricultural excellence but also represents our school's strong agricultural program. Congratulations to Will and Brock on their well-deserved success.
