A great day out at Wandin Valley Farms 🙌

The boys got a look behind the scenes, met some of the Wandin crew and learnt a bit more about the work that goes into running a farming operation.

These are the sorts of experiences we love getting our boys involved in. Getting out, meeting good people and seeing different jobs and opportunities firsthand.

Big thanks to the Wandin Valley Farms team for having us. We’re looking forward to doing more together.

You’ll often find Nick and H-man out and about, but last week Edward River Library was the place to be 📚

H loves reading and he’s getting better every week.
He’s had his challenges with school and communicating when things get a bit much, so that’s something he and Nick have been working on together.

Every boy’s goals at BttB are different.
Our MENtors meet them where they’re at and work on what matters to them, including what they enjoy and what they want to get better at.

The Boys to the Bush team are deeply shocked and saddened by what has happened to Indi MP Helen Haines.

Helen means a great deal to our region, and we’re grateful for the genuine support and interest she has shown in Boys to the Bush and the communities we work in.

Our thoughts are with Helen, her family and her team. We’re all behind her as she faces a tough road ahead and wish her strength in her recovery.

Respect matters. Violence is never the answer.
Helen Haines MP

Bendigo, mark your calendars for Lunch for the Lads!

We’re doing things a bit differently this year...
We’re stepping away from the usual auctions and raffles, and instead putting together a gallery of real stories from the young lads and MENtors involved with Boys to the Bush. You’ll be able to invest in a future story on the day to help us raise the vital funds needed to keep our Bendigo shed and operations running strong.

Des (who you’ll see in the video) and the whole Bendigo team will be there, so come on down to the Bendigo Club for a cracking afternoon, good food, a cold drink, and some great yarns about what it really takes (and means) to be a MENtor.

🗓 When: Friday 4th December

📍 Where: Bendigo Club

🎟️ Tickets: $125 (includes lunch + drinks)

So get a table together and back a great local cause. Grab your tickets now!

There’s going above and beyond, and then there’s agreeing to sing a Disney number in front of a packed crowd for BttB.

That’s exactly what Jack from our Wagga crew did for Wagga Wagga Takes 2.

After helping get BttB involved, Jack eventually put his own hand up for the challenge and spent months rehearsing, fundraising and getting ready for the big nights.

One of the highlights was seeing Kaiden, who Jack MENtors, get up in front of 350 people on Saturday night and spoke. No small feat, and a great example of what can come from having someone like Jack in your corner.

More than $400,000 was raised for local charities across the event, with BttB set to benefit as well.

Huge effort, Jack. We were all very happy cheering you on from the safety of the crowd. 😂👏

Back at our Wangaratta shed to share a great moment...

Aiden, who spends time with his mentor Rourky, got to help out his favourite team, the Wangaratta Rovers Football & Netball Club throughout their premiership-winning season.

Pretty special to see senior premiership players Will Christie and Brodie Paul surprise him with his own Rovers jumper and the chance to get his hands on the cup.

Good people making time for our BttB boys. That's what community is all about!

The things learned at Boys to the Bush aren't always what you'd expect.

Sometimes they're practical skills like fishing, lawn mowing or bike riding. Sometimes it's what respect can look like in a practical sense, shaking hands and starting a conversation.

For some boys, those things aren't shown or taught at home. That's why early intervention matters. The earlier we can connect a young person with positive role models, the greater the impact we can have on their future.

Every mechanic starts somewhere. Usually with the wrong socket and a supervisor standing nearby. 😅

Luckily, the team at Bridgestone Leeton have plenty of patience. They're helping our boys get hands-on in a real workshop and learn a few tricks of the trade.

Big thanks to the Bridgestone Australia team for always making time for our lads.

A good day out for our Wangaratta lads at Squires 🌿

No they weren't enjoying the great local drinks on tap, the boys were busy pruning olive trees, pulling out old dripper lines and lots of other odd jobs around the property. Plenty of laughs, plenty of teamwork and a great way to spend a day outside of the classroom.

Big thanks to Paul and the team at Squires Winery for having us, and to Mulwala Waterski Club for backing this group and helping make programs like this possible.

School holidays are just around the corner and we've got some ripper camps coming up.

Looks like the Echuca boys are coming for Albury's Murray Cod Crown 👑

Z and his MENtor Nick caught this 71cm whopper in Deni a few weeks ago!
We're now into breeding season so there won't be any new champions for a few months...

A fish like that's hard to beat, but a day on the river having a yarn comes pretty close. 🎣
