Take a walk through one of our cottages which are over 100 years old where the living conditions were very different to the creature comforts we have now!

The Rockhampton Grammar School - 5 August 2022
We would like to thank you for allowing the grade 2 students from The Rockhampton Grammar School to visit the Heritage Village this week. The students walked away with a wealth of knowledge, and we are sure the students are eager to go back and explore further with their families.
The transport volunteers (stagecoach, tram, horse and carriage and jeep) were great and the students thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It gave them a great opportunity to see what past types of transport were on display as well.
‘Sir’ was fantastic! There was a great balance of the old school traditions and strict routines and then the debrief at the end was a nice way to end the session.
The excursion was fast-paced, and the lack of down time kept the students engaged at all times. Anne and Les as tour guides were great and explained a lot about the history at a student friendly level. They were polite and even accommodated some extra requests at the end for a quick visit to Dingley’s cottage and City Printing Works.
Narelle’s group also thoroughly enjoyed the excursion, and it was evident that Narelle knew a lot about the historical features at the Village. It was wonderful that our rotations were kept to time and some additional time at the end allowed us to see a couple of other sites briefly.
