Marking Time is the theme for this year’s History Week. What people, events and histories will our school children want to celebrate and remember in the future? A highlight of the year at the Gerringong Museum is the visit by students from Gerringong School. During Book Week over 200 children glimpsed into the past through exhibits which revealed what our past community considered important to commemorate.
We asked the students to suggest what they would put into the museum. From school and sports uniforms, ballet shoes, a 2024 newsletter and iPhone to, "it would be a picture of the old surf club. It represents many people who volunteer from the community and the families who gather there on Sunday for Nippers.”
How do you personally mark time? If you have photographs, stories or memorabilia which you would like to donate to our collection please contact us at: [email protected] or drop in on Friday or Saturday 11am to 3pm
Our Gerringong Scout, Guide, Brownie and Cub Exhibition is still open.
