We’re beyond excited about the renewal of our partnership with Bendigo Braves and Red Energy Arena for a fourth consecutive year!

As part of this partnership Agnico Eagle Australia Community Partnership Program is proud to support the 'Be Brave Agnico Eagle Reading Program', which aims to ignite a passion for reading and learning in kids, inspired by the Bendigo Braves' values of teamwork, inclusivity, and connection. 

"At Agnico Eagle, we support the communities in which we operate and assist with health and wellbeing, education and sustainability, said Felicia Binks, Director Environment and Government Relations, Australia at Agnico Eagle.

“Children aspire to be what they can see, so having elite athletes and their sporting idols reading with them, and showing them that education is important is key.”

With classroom-based activities and on-court experiences, students get to interact with Braves players who serve as fantastic role models and mentors.

The program got off to a bouncing start this term and will run into term three, visiting eight schools over 42 sessions.

Here’s to another fantastic year of reading, learning, and inspiring our future stars!
