This fascinating exhibition looks at the similarities and differences between archaeology and palaeontology. Discover what archaeologists and palaeontologists do; what tools they use, how they excavate and why they carry out digs. On display will be a collection of stone tools found on Bribie Island as well as casts of dinosaur bones and footprints.
The exhibition will feature a number of free self-paced activities including, an archaeology dig tray, activity sheets and a giant Pliosaur jigsaw puzzle to solve.
There will also be some paid workshops. Limited places are available for the workshops so bookings are essential.
