Brittany and Justin are teaching about chemical safety during the farm safety program
Elgin FFA Chapter members and students in Ag
education classes from Elgin High school hosted a farm safety
program on Friday, September 19th. Kindergarten thru sixth
grade students from St. Boniface and Elgin Public Elementary
attended the event.
Various stations covering farm
safety were explored by the youngsters. The topics being
presented by the high school students were tractor safety, chemical
safety, grain bin/auger/ gravity wagon safety, lawn mower/weed
eater safety, fire safety, ATV safety, and animal safety. The
farm safety event was planned by the Elgin FFA Chapter to raise
farm safety awareness with the youngsters during National Farm
Safety Week. According to Mr. Simpson Elgin High Agricultural
Educator, “We need to hold events like this to educate our
community’s youth on various dangers on the farm. With
harvest just around the corner it is important to remind these
young people of dangers that could be present.”
