We’ve re-visioned our education opportunities to make the Emerald Show more connected to classroom learning than ever before. The Show is no longer just a fun day out – it’s a living classroom that links directly to the Australian Curriculum and inspires curiosity, creativity, and community pride.

Integrating the Emerald Show into classroom learning isn’t just fun – it’s directly connected to the Australian Curriculum v9 across multiple learning areas. By preparing entries or engaging with Show activities, students can:

• English & Literacy – Develop writing, presenting, and reflective skills through creating captions, posters, and reports.

• Mathematics – Apply measurement, data collection, and problem-solving to real-world contexts like agriculture, produce displays, and competitions.

• Science & STEM – Explore biological, chemical, earth and environmental sciences through animal studies, plant growth, sustainability, and food production.

• HASS – Connect with local history, geography, economics, and civics by investigating community traditions and industries.

• The Arts – Express creativity through visual arts, media, and design in themed competitions and pavilion displays.

• Technologies – Apply design, engineering, and digital solutions in projects that reflect innovation in agriculture and rural industries.

• General Capabilities – Strengthen critical and creative thinking, ethical understanding, intercultural awareness, and personal/social capability through participation and teamwork.

​

Participation also supports the Cross-curriculum Priorities by deepening understanding of sustainability, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures, and Australia’s engagement with Asia through agriculture and trade.

​

In short, the Show provides an authentic, community-based context where students can apply knowledge, demonstrate skills, and showcase creativity – all while feeling proud of their learning.
