driving cattle across the creek
The crack of stockwhips and the barking of kelpies add a stir of excitement as the cattle are driven across the creek and into the yards.

You can learn the skills and techniques used by Jackaroos and Jillaroos to work in the Australian Outback.

You will also experience eleven days of a real life adventure holiday on an Australian sheep and cattle station.

"Leconfield" is a working property of 4600 acres set in the beautiful hillside country on the Mulla Creek area of Northern New South Wales. This property has been in the Skerrett family for nearly one hundred years. Brian Skerrett, the current owner, wanted to give people a chance to experience life as a Jackaroo or Jillaroo, so he started a training school. The school has been running since 1983, and has given hundreds of people the chance to learn these time honoured and traditional skills.
