The Smart Farming virtual classroom will provide students (and teachers!) with an introduction into red meat farming, sustainable farming practices and technology used in modern farming.

Be Your Greatest virtual classroom resource hub

We believe healthy minds and healthy bodies are fundamental to ensure students are at their best!

The Be Your Greatest series was a live virtual classroom hosted by Australian Beef in the lead up to the Tokyo Olympic Games aiming to highlight health and well-being for primary school students.

We've created this resource hub to access the session video recordings showcasing Australian Olympic and Paralympic heroes inspiring primary school students to stay mentally and physically fit while cooking up their favourite Australian beef meals with Chef Matt Sinclair.
