Dannevirke and districts’ lamb and calf day well supported

Students put their lambs through their paces for the judge.

A spot of rain is no bother for these two.

Dannevirke and districts' lamb and calf day is one of the big events for rural communities' calendars.

It would have been a tough job for the judges trying to find the winner.

Being able to lead a calf is an important element in the competition.

The competition's not just for the big kids. Little ones get in on it too.
