Renovations and Upgrades

Railway Upgrades!!!

We have had the model railway at the Bolton school as part of our Building the Railway session for sometime now. Due to some problems we had with the small gauge of the line and the difficulties of frequent derailments, The busy railway workers poured their sweat and tears into upgrading it to a wider gauge over the summer months.

The new train should resolve the issue and make the learning experience fun for everyone. Now the students even get to “drive” the train!

In addition to the new train system, the floors have all been updated and look great. We anticipate the attending groups to the Connection to the Land program will appreciate the upgrades.

"The facilities we experienced were authentic and helped us gain a genuine understanding of what it was like at the Precinct over 100 years ago."
