Visit Pine Rivers Heritage Museum in the September school holidays and participate in a Kids at the Museum workshop.

Each Thursday we will investigate and learn about a remarkable invention by Leonardo Da Vinci. We'll get hands-on creating mini replica models. 

This Kids at the Museum workshop series is being held in conjunction with Da Vinci Machines: Inventions brought to life. The incredible exhibition is on display at  Bribie Island Seaside Museum, Pine Rivers Heritage Museum and Redcliffe Museum. Drop into North Lakes Library to view a replica flying machine by Leonardo da Vinci while the exhibition is on!
