World Milk Day is not only a celebration of milk, but a celebration of the hardworking Aussie dairy communities. Dairy farming families take pride in feeding and nourishing our country. Australia’s dairy farmers have been proudly producing the dairy foods we love every day for almost 200 years. They work hard to ensure we have fresh, nutritious milk every day!
Milk plays an important role in the growth and development of kids and is packed with more than 10 essential nutrients, including calcium which helps build strong bones and teeth. Milk is a good source of energy and protein.
This year as we celebrate on the 1st of June, we are asking your class to share why milk matters to you...
Use the World Milk Day resources to educate your students on how milk is made and the important role milk plays in growth and development.
Then celebrate with us by sharing a video, milk craft, picture, drawing or some words on why Milk Matters to you with our team atschools@dairyaustralia.com.au. Here are some worksheets to help your students get started. We will be selecting a few to feature on our World Milk Day page.
Need some inspiration? Check out some milk bottle crafts designed by Cinta and Co. You can find the instructions here.

The school team looks forward to seeing your amazing work!
