NEW SCHOOL HOLIDAY ATTRACTION UNVEILED AT HUNTER WETLANDS CENTRE

For many kids, it would be a dream job and on Monday students from Shortland Public were the first to try their hands at being a paleontologist, as a dinosaur dig site was unveiled.

It’s the creation of the Hunter Wetlands Centre, complete with a to-scale Camarasaurus skeleton, which will be examined daily during the upcoming school holidays.

Other dinosaur-related activities at the centre include exhibitions and even dino discos.

The event starts on Saturday and will run for two weeks.
