The Big Dig Archaeology Education Centre is part of Sydney Harbour YHA in The Rocks heritage precinct of Sydney.
The centre facilitates hands-on archaeology educational experiences and opens the archaeological site to the public.
Stage 2 students from OLOL went to The Big Dig earlier this week and worked as archaeologists to excavate artefacts from the simulated archaeological dig, then used their investigative skills to discover what life was really like for the convicts and early settlers who lived in The Rocks during the 1800s.

Term 3 Week 2 in Year 6. We participated in a prayer experience this week. In groups we prepared an experience for others to engage in. Afterward, we reflected on the different ways they made us feel. We were also lucky enough to have an incursion - Kaleidoscope Science. We had fun learning about forces and movement through lots of cool short experiments. #kaleidoscopescience
