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.

Today, on ANZAC Day, we proudly acknowledge our School Captains, Jessica and Sebastian, who represented our school at the Dawn Service at Seven Hills RSL alongside Mrs. Clynick. They attended with great respect and dignity, honouring the service and sacrifice of our ANZACs and represented our school community with immense pride. We also extend our sincere thanks to their families for supporting them and making it possible for them to attend at such an early hour. Lest we forget.
