World Milk Day 2022

With our Professional Development Partner Saputo Dairy Australia we're celebrating World Milk Day. This year is all about celebrating sustainable practises in dairy, with a focus on climate. Saputo works hard to make every drop count – optimising production processes to minimise waste and delivering all the nutrients that milk offers across a range of products. That’s something close to our hearts, so let’s raise a glass of milk to celebrate World Milk Day on 1 June 2022!

We asked schools and services to give us their cheesiest joke to go into the running to win $1000 worth of dairy from Saputo (just some of the 6.5million kilos of dairy products they've donated to communities over the past two years!), and we got a gouda lot of them.

What did the cheese say when checking itself out in the mirror?

Halloouuuummiiiiiiii...
