Welcome to Murrum-Bridget's Amazing Jugiong Journey of
Exploring, Discovering and Learning.
Jugiong Public School's Archibull 2016 blog.
We have named our blog... Murrum-Bridget's Blog in honour of our Archi calf.
Wow... what an incredible learning journey the students, staff and community have been taken on. The Archibull 2016 theme is FEEDING, CLOTHING AND POWERING A HUNGRY NATION IS A SHARED RESPONSIBILITY. At Jugiong Public School, with all our students, (Kindergarten to Year 6) we will be exploring and showcasing The Australian Wool Industry.
We didn't even really know what a blog was, let alone how to design and build one! We have been down and dirty in "The Learning Pit"!
We are extremely proud of our collaborative journey and student driven blog.
We invite you to come on line and follow our Archibull 2016 journey.

What is Archibull 2016?
The Archibull Prize is an innovative hands on program that sees urban and rural schools research an agricultural industry and express their findings through artwork.
The 2016 competition theme ‘Feeding, Clothing and Powering a Hungry Nation' encourages students and teachers to have courageous conversations about the greatest challenges to Australian agriculture – climate change, food and fashion waste, declining natural resources and biosecurity. The program design also invites the students to be part of the solution by sharing their ideas on how to tackle these challenges as individuals, as a community and as the mums and dads of the next generation.

The Archibull Prize brings the farm into the classroom.
It provides students with opportunities to meet young farmers and to gain knowledge and skills about the production of the food they eat, fibres they use and the environment they live in.
It creates an opportunity for students to work together to create an amazing artwork that tells the story of farming as they understand it.
It builds relationships between schools, industry, business and the community as they progress through the Archibull Prize’s different elements.
It raises awareness of exciting career pathways.
It promotes change and fosters two-way conversations.
And it builds lifelong relationships between consumers and their farmers.

Jugiong Public School Song
It nestles in the valley, not far from my home.
A small and scattered village, where Ben Hall used to roam.
The hills rise steep around it, the river flows slowly by.
It's on the Hume Highway, twenty miles from Gundagai.
The scenery all around it, and for many miles beyond.
It's something to remember, if you come to Jugiong.
