National Volunteer Week: A Massive Thank You! 🙌🚜

An event as big and successful as the Oxford A&P Show simply doesn't happen without an absolute army of incredible volunteers.

From the committee members who spend months planning behind the scenes, to the gate marshals, stewards, and everyone who rolls up their sleeves to set up pens, judge competitions, and clean up afterwards—THANK YOU!

Your hard work, time, and community spirit are what keep our local traditions thriving year after year. We are incredibly lucky to have such a dedicated crew giving back to our rural community.

Dairy Goat Junior Judging A Success in Cross-Section Collaboration

This year, the Dairy Goat section introduced an exciting change by opening the Junior Judging class to participants from the Dairy and Beef Cattle sections. The initiative proved to be an outstanding success, fostering camaraderie and skill-sharing across different agricultural disciplines.

The Competition
The class invited young agriculturalists aged 24 and under to demonstrate their technical knowledge. Competitors were evaluated on their precision in placing the animals and their confidence in speaking to those placings—a true test of both livestock eye and public speaking.

Highlighting New Talent
The event saw a fantastic turnout, notably from the Rangiora High School Lowline Cattle team, who brought eight competitors to the ring. Remarkably, seven of those eight were competing in Dairy Goat judging for the very first time.

Section Convener Alice praised the effort of the newcomers:
"It was wonderful to see so many young people stepping outside their comfort zones. For so many first-timers to perform at this level is a testament to their dedication and livestock knowledge."

Official Results
A huge congratulations to the following individuals for their top-tier evaluations:

1st Place: Harry Parrish (Rangiora High School Lowline Cattle team)

2nd Place: Niamh Carden-Holdstock (Tamarvale Dairy Goats)

3rd Place: Samara Van Wyk (Rangiora High School Lowline Cattle team)

4th Place: Annabelle Birchler (Rangiora High School Lowline Cattle team)

Congratulations to all the competitors who participated and helped make this cross-section initiative a highlight of the year! And Thanks to the exhibitors who help run this.

Sponsorship Opportunities
Following the success of this year’s cross-section initiative, we are looking for a dedicated sponsor to support the Dairy Goat Junior Judging class for the 2027 show. This is a unique opportunity to support youth development and agricultural education in our community. If you or your business would like to provide prizes or support for these talented young judges or another section, please send us a message .
