The kids will be whipping out their art smocks and mixing their colour palettes as they embark upon the 12 week program to transform the blank-cow-‘canvas’ into an impressive dairy-related art work, tracking their experiences along the way in a learning journal.
It’s all part of Dairy Australia’s annual Picasso Cows program – now in its seventh year – which aims to help kids discover the health and nutritional benefits of dairy foods like milk, cheese and yogurt as part of a balanced diet, and learn more about Australia’s 13 billion-dollar dairy industry and its contribution to the economy.
Schools across Canberra will adopt one of three themes – ‘Unbeatable Bones,’ ‘Fuel for Life’ or ‘Farm to Plate’ – for inspiration and once their masterpieces are complete, will compete against one another for a slice of the program’s total prize pool.
