Today was the first day of winter...frost was on the ground...and Clyde Year 7 & 8s arrived for their museum visit!!

Luckily the sun quickly came over the hill and the frost and frozen ground soon disappeared! Students completed a range of activties all linked to the GOLD RUSH! There was the gold detective in the museum looking at the different types of gold, mining methods and life on the goldfields. Then the Chinese village...exploring these small huts and imagining how difficult life must have been here..then there was the 'life as a miner' challenge! Students saw how LONG things took to complete and how much PEOPLE POWER was used!

Clyde senior students we hope you had a great time - we certainly did - hopefully you might come back and can write about your visit on this blog!
