September school holiday program

Hyde Park Barracks, Macquarie St, Sydney NSW 2000

About

Hyde Park Barracks, a UNESCO World Heritage-listed site on Macquarie Street in Sydney, tells the story of the convicts who built early colonial New South Wales. An award-winning audio experience brings the building to life, and during school holidays the site runs creative workshops and family activities. Kids can explore the dormitories, archaeology displays and grounds in the heart of the city. It is a compact, all-weather visit that pairs well with the neighbouring Royal Botanic Garden.
