Their reward was hearing the judge, Braydon Gilmore, describe them as the best examples of the breed.
The school began their East Friesian stud 10 years ago.
Tintern Grammar students Freya Byson, Chelsea Regan and Maya Watt holding the two ewes and one ram awarded Grand Champion, Group of Three, East Friesian.
“I’m very happy with the quality of what’s on show here. They have presented animals with very good wool and body type,” Mr Gilmore said.
The ewe presented with Grand Champion status, as with the ram, were both weaners. The pair, with another ewe, received the Grand Champion, Group of Three Under-1.5-years-old.
The same ram was Champion Ram at the Berwick Show in February this year.
Holding the East Friesian Grand Champion ewe and ram were Lucy Bailey and Maya Watt, Tintern Grammar, supported by Gavin Wall, president ASSBA and judge Braydon Gilmore.
