I would like to congratulate Year 8 student Yasmine Brockhurst from Brigidine College who received an award after participating in the Hermitage Schools Plant Science Competition.

The competition is run by the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries and celebrates the importance of native foods and the role of Science and Agriculture.

Yasmine won the Ag Institute of Australia Junior Science Achievement Award. To find out more about the award click here. Registrations are also now open for 2023 competition here.
