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.

What a beautiful way to celebrate our Feast Day and Opening School Mass. Wednesday's morning Mass was a joyful celebration as we commissioned our 2026 student leaders, warmly welcomed our new Kindergarten students, and embraced new members of our school community. It was a wonderful moment of faith, gratitude, and togetherness as we came together to start the year united and hopeful.
