Among them was 13-year-old Jake Webster from Westray Stud who secured a champion ribbon for one of his southdown rams.
His friend Brad Anderson, 13, from Talkook Border Leicester Stud also had success in the ring thanks to a champion ewe ribbon for one of his flock.
Also taking part was St Stanislaus’ College Year 8 student, Bill McDonnell who was there as part of the school’s shorthorn cattle competitors.
“I’m having fun leading cows around and learning about animals,” Bill, 13, said.
