Palmerston pause to reflect on the past!

Riding in style!

  • Palmerston pause to reflect on the past!Who worked in here?

Today, saw the Year 6 class from Palmerston School visit the museum. Here to learn all about the past they participated in several activities including Miss Grey's classroom, exlporing the Chinese village, touring the musem and GOLD 150 exhibition, the Old Gaol and then finally panning for gold in the Arrow River.

What did you learn? Can you remember when gold was first discovered in Arrowtown? and who discovered it? What were the different rooms in Ah Lum's store used for? Why is the fire in the Chinese huts near the door?

We hope you enjoyed your visit and look forward to hearing about it on this blog!
