A big thank you to Rex for loaning us these fossils.

Today the Year 5 and 6 classes were lucky to be visited by Julian from GNS Science. He spoke to us about Fossils and some of the most important finds in NZ.
Joan Wiffen wasn't a scientist but she was interested in rocks and fossils. She was the first person to discover that NZ had dinosaurs when she found a bone from a dinosaurs spine in Hawkes Bay. Before that scientists didn't think that there had been dinosaurs in NZ.
You can read more about Joan here.
Julian also told us about the dinosaur footprints that have been found at the top of the South Island. You can read more about this in Julian's blog.
