Inter Landbouskole snoeikompetisie. Augsburg Landbou Gimnasium van Clanwilliam in die Wes-Kaap se top drie kandidate het onlangs die skool verteenwoordig by ‘n Inter-landbouskole snoeikompetisie.
Andruan Klaase, Eduard van Zyl en Marius Smit het Augsburg by hierdie spoggeleentheid verteenwoordig. Augsburg moes teen Boland Landbouskool deelneem in die skoliere-afdeling. Daar was ook ‘n “intervarsity”afdeling. Deelnemers was beoordeel volgens die kwaliteit en spoed waarmee hulle die wingerd snoei. Die fokus was veral op vernuwing en spasiëring van draers. Dit is sodat die wingerd in die toekoms groter oeste kan dra.
Eduard van Zyl het ‘n derde plek behaal en Marius Smith het weggestap met ‘n eerste plek!
