Eight schools will be attending the event, with 52 students and 98 horses converging on the showgrounds to compete.
The two day campdraft event will include a practice session on Saturday offering participants the opportunity to improve their horsemanship and gain increased confidence in the saddle, receiving specialist coaching on their riding skills from legendary campdrafter Terry Hall, Lightview, Goondiwindi.
The Percentile Cup held on the Sunday will see riders vying for a number of prize titles in a three-round competition.
St Margaret’s Anglican Girls School Head of Boarding Lesa Fowler said the school was proud to support the Warwick community.
“St Margaret’s is thrilled to support the high school campdraft in Warwick, a community which is home to many of our St Margaret’s girls and their families,” she said.
“A busload of our 170 strong, diverse boarding community will travel to the event to support many of our own students who will be competing in the competition.
“We see this as a wonderful opportunity to showcase a classic Australian sport to many of our city and international girls who may not have witnessed campdrafting in action.”
Competition begins at 7am on Sunday. Get down to the Warwick Showgrounds for some awesome action and to show your support for these kids.
