More than 30 schools from around NSW are expected to take part in the 2018 event.
Wingham Beef Week is a week-long festival based on all facets of the beef industry giving students, juniors and producers a rare opportunity to participate in a range of competitions.
The event aims to educate at ground level the next generation of our future junior beef enthusiasts through education and competition.
