YOUNG AGGIES MOREE RURAL SCHOLARSHIP
The Young Aggies Moree are a
group of young agricultural professionals in the Moree district with a focus on
attracting and retaining Moree’s next generation of young professionals
ABOUT THE SCHOLARSHIP
The Young Aggies Moree Rural Scholarship Fund is designed to support and encourage students undertaking
an agricultural discipline at a tertiary level to seek out work experience in
the Moree area as part of their course requirements. This will allow students
to gain practical experience, while being exposed to the wide array of
opportunities that exist in Australia’s richest agricultural shire. It will
also foster networking and professional development opportunities through the
Young Aggies. It is hoped that this experience will encourage students to seek
out long term employment in Moree upon completion of their studies and provide
them with a contact and network basis to kickstart their career.
