Hey kids! It’s time again to enter the annual Farm Safety calendar competition hosted by Workplace Health and Safety Queensland.

Twelve winners will be published in the 2024 calendar, which will be distributed free to rural communities.

Students from Prep to Year 6 are encouraged to enter.

Each winner will receive a $250 gift card for themselves and $500 for their school.

South Burnett primary schools have featured strongly in previous years, collecting many prizes.

Entries close on Friday, June 23.

The annual competition has been running since 2015.

Last year, demand for the free farm safety calendar was overwhelming, with more than 30,000 copies printed and distributed.

Entries for the 2024 calendar should illustrate one of the following farm safety messages:

  • Electrical safety
  • Animal safety
  • Tractor and machinery safety
  • Quad bike safety
  • Water safety
  • General health and well-being
