PART TWO: IN-SHOW COMPETITION INFORMATION

OBJECTIVES • The Show section competition provides the opportunity

for students from throughout the State to participate in an open competition against all other Show Exhibitors at the Perth Royal Show.

Equally important, they will also develop comradeship and the sportsmanlike aspects of competing, winning and losing, as well as demonstrating these feelings amongst fellow students and competitors.
