"Our Farmers, Our Future" Enviro-Stories Education Program
The Border Rivers-Gwydir CMA, along with the Cotton Catchment Communities CRC and Central West CMA are supporting the "Our Farmers, Our Future" Enviro-Stories Education Program. We are looking for students to use their imagination and write and illustrate stories about 'Life on the Farm'. Stories can be from a human, plant or animal perspective or about events that occur on farms. Students have a chance to go in the running to get their book published. Click on the "button" to find out how you or your students can be involved. Entries close 29 June 2012.
