from Prep to Year 6 to use their creativity to promote awareness about potential safety hazards on farms.<\/p>\n<p>This year, a record-breaking 2514 entries were received from more than 140 primary schools.<\/p>\n<p>Makayla Weller, from Wooroolin State School, and Carter Steger, from Kilkivan State School, were among the 12 winning young artists.<\/p>\n<p>They will each receive a $250 gift card for themselves and $500 for their school.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Entries had to illustrate one of the following farm safety messages:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Electrical safety<\/li>\n<li>Animal safety<\/li>\n<li>Tractor and machinery safety<\/li>\n<li>Quad bike safety<\/li>\n<li>Water safety<\/li>\n<li>Health and well-being<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Makayla and Carter both chose water safety as the message they wanted to share.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Member for Nanango Deb Frecklington congratulated the winners.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Farm Safety Calendar competition is a great example of how Queenslanders look out for one another,\u201d Mrs Frecklington said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis initiative encourages our next generation to think about risks and safe behaviours early, helping to build a
