“These great new resources are now available on the Agribusiness in Schools website. They include a huge variety of activities for year one to year five students and will really help to further expand students’ understanding of some of New Zealand’s key agricultural sectors.”
Agribusiness in schools has seen great success throughout 2023. From agri-leaders celebrating milestones to agri-visionaries paving their way in the Primary Industries. With 65% urban and 35% rural schools throughout New Zealand, the interest in Agribusiness is on a steady climb! Read here for more information.
Fellow educators have come together from all over New Zealand to be enlightened, inspired and engaged by some of Aotearoa's best and brightest agri-experts at the 2024 National Agribusiness Conference. Read to find out more about their take on futuristic foods.
In these hectic times, it is important to take a moment to acknowledge our agri-leaders for their direction, and celebrate the milestones reached in the ongoing journey for success in the Primary Industries.
Agribusiness in Schools in conjunction with the Ministry of Education, NZQA and the primary industries have collaborated to design an agribusiness programme that will prepare the best and brightest students for careers in the primary sector.
It is offered at NCEA Levels 2 and 3 and is designed for students who excel in science and commerce subjects. This academic course exposes students to the wide range of skills required and the opportunities available in the primary sector beyond the farm gate.
The agribusiness programme is now being offered at other schools around New Zealand.
