Today saw the Year 7 & 8 students from John McGlashan College in Dunedin visit the museum to learn about life in the past! They experienced a range of activities including exploring the museum and looking for information about how life was so different during the goldrush; a walk around the streets of Arrowtown looking at buildings the miners used including the Old Gaol; visiting the Chinese village huts and the conditions these men had to live in; and finally trying their luck in the Arrow River to pan for gold!

We hope you enjoyed your visit and look forward to hearing any comments on this blog!
