33 Year 6 students from St Mary's in Gore, came to visit the Lakes District Museum & Gallery in Arrowtown!

It was a busy day for these kids with our two educators Denise and Angela working with them. These students got to experience:

  • A scary 1880's lesson with Miss Gray
  • A museum visit which included handling artefacts
  • A historic walk of Arrowtown where students got to visit and Old Gaol, Saint Mary Mackillops cottage, and some really old miners cottages!
  • And some gold panning!!

What was your favourite part of your visit?

Do you think learning would've been easy or hard during the 1800's? Why?

Did you find gold?
