“There's are so many highlights. There has just been a real buzz around the school. We have Yr 8’s already asking to join the competition. Going to Belgium was fantastic. All the groups were there. We got to mingle together. The boys made new friends from all across the country and they were brought together with their shared interest in agriculture and the agri food sector.”
