On Friday 22nd May, student members of our Aldridge SHS Cattle Club presented our current crop of calves for judging in various classes at the Fraser Coast Show. Our team members prepared our calves for judging, ensuring that they were well presented. The cattle were very successful considering the strength of the fields against which they were pitted for show honours.

This yearโ€™s cattle show was essentially run as an โ€œinterbreedโ€ competition with cattle from all breed types and size ranges looking to be deemed the best the Fraser Coast has to offer. The good news is that we were successful in securing ribbons for cattle we entered. The sweetest result possible as the cattle we are showing are now all home bred by us here on the Searle Street farm.

This yearโ€™s result highlights are listed below:

The Ridge Winter Rain โ€“ Led steer/heifer under 350kg โ€“ 1ST place

The Ridge Winter Rain โ€“ Led Steer/Heifer โ€“ Reserve Champion

This was an outstanding result in both classes with โ€˜Rainโ€™ winning against a large class (15 animals). She then went on to be awarded reserve champion just behind the middleweight champion entrant. This result is an impressive one with Rain effectively coming second out of the total of 40 animals judged on the day.

Our new young bull calf The Ridge Wait No More (Kev) came third in a class out of 10 Junior Bulls on show. Kev is a โ€˜Ridgeโ€™ bred calf who is only 8 months old.

Finally, we entered groups of animals in the classes, โ€œPair of Junor Heifersโ€ and โ€œBreederโ€™s Groupโ€ classes. The Breedersโ€™ Group is a class in which three animals bred and owned by the exhibitor are shown against other studsโ€™ progeny.

Our small stud achieved thirds in both classes, an admirable achievement

The staff and students who attended would like to thank the Aldridge School Community for supporting us in our efforts to prepare and show our animals to their best potential.

If you have a student interested in being part of our Ag family, please contact the school and register for one of our Principal tours to visit the farm and talk to our Enrolments office about enrolling.

Our Year 12 Business students have started researching for their IA3 Feasibility Report. ๐Ÿ“Š

Their task is to investigate repositioning strategies that Pizza Hut could implement to increase market share and profitability within a highly competitive and price-sensitive market. One strategy students are exploring is the reintroduction of dine-in restaurants. ๐Ÿช๐Ÿ•

With Mrs Brooks being the only person who could remember the original Maryborough Pizza Hut restaurant, the class jumped on a bus and headed to Gympie to visit one of the eight remaining dine-in locations in Australia. ๐ŸšŒ

Of course, fully experiencing the all-you-can-eat buffet lunch as part of the research process was a difficult taskโ€ฆ but someone had to do it! ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ•๐Ÿฅค๐Ÿฆ

Our students have been hard at work at the Fraser Coast Show preparing the calves for showing. From washing and drying to combing and grooming, students have been developing their animal handling skills and taking great pride in presenting the calves at their very best. โœจ

๐ŸŽถ SONGWRITING PROJECT 2026๐ŸŽค

Over the past two days, our Aldridge students have been diving deep into the world of songwriting! With the guidance of industry professionals, theyโ€™ve explored symbolism, crafted lyrics, and unlocked melodies that are simply magical.

But thatโ€™s not all! In the coming weeks, weโ€™ll be announcing 6 lucky finalists who will have their original songs professionally recorded and mixed, ready to take on the global airwaves! ๐ŸŒ

Our Aldridge recording studio is buzzing with creativity, and we canโ€™t wait to see what our talented young songwriters will create next.

Big shoutout to lead mentor and recording artist Pat Kenny who continually supports our music program and who this year brought a few friends including the insanely talented Brook St Freight Train Foxes & Emmie Music

Thanks to Mr. Hodgkinson "Hodgo" for championing our students and encouraging them to push their creative boundaries! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Drop a ๐ŸŽค, Aldridge music memory or well wishes in the commentsโ€ฆ..we canโ€™t wait to hear the finalists and their amazing tracks
