Year 9 science students from St Matthews Catholic High School in Mudgee recently visited our Crudine Ridge Wind Farm to see renewable energy up close.

Our team hosted 120 students for a safety briefing, a guided tour, and a hands-on look at the equipment and tools used on site—bringing classroom learning into the real world and sparking conversations about future careers in renewables.

Crudine Ridge Wind Farm (45km south of Mudgee) has 37 turbines and generates enough electricity to power more than 75,000 homes, avoiding around 266,000 tonnes of carbon emissions each year.

We had an amazing day in Dunedoo in Central West NSW for Try a Trade Day. It was great chatting with students about the jobs needed to build and operate renewable energy projects like our Uungula Wind Farm, which is under construction in nearby in Wellington.

Students watched a time lapse video of a turbine being built, and identified the jobs needed for each stage of construction.

A big thank you to the students for their great questions. There’s a bright future in renewables if that’s your goal.

Meanwhile, Gather in Gil - an event organised by The Rustic Burrow Trading Co - was held at Curban Hall.

Gather in Gil celebrates the strength, creativity and connection of women across the Gilgandra region ☀️
