Traditionally, Jackaroos and Jillaroos are trainee stockmen and women. Old hands will tell you that no farming career in Australia is complete without a stint as a Jackaroo or Jillaroo.
There's simply nothing to compare with the hands-on training that a Jackaroo or Jillaroo apprenticeship offers.
No horseriding experience? No worries, mate! We'll ensure you get familiarised around all the animals and machinery in no time. We'll start you off nice and easy and bring everyone along at a steady pace.
We teach you:
We'll also help you get a job and provide a reference!
Being shy isn't the Aussie country way, mate!
That's why you'll be welcomed in just like one of the family. You'll get lashings of country-cooked meals and sleep in station-style comfort. When the sun sets on a great week, you'll have top memories of the true Australian station way of life and you won't want to leave!
This package starts on Sunday night with pre accommodation in Taworth YHA. The 5 day course starts on Monday.
