Dinosaur Isle

The museum provides an all-year education service for schools and other organizations, and a programme of public walks at places of geological and palaeontological interest. The collections were started by members of the Isle of Wight Philosophical Society over 200 years ago, and have been added to over the years.  Many of Dinosaur Isle's fossils appear in scientific publications, and continue to be researched. Dinosaur Isle is the most recent building to house the collection, opening in 2001.

 

The children are on the lookout for Dinosaurs'!!! 

 

As well as viewing all the interesting artefacts, the children are also doing Fossil hunting on the beach after they attend the planned Workshop.  Some of the children found some fossilised wood from the subterranean forests!

 

Next stop - lunch then off to Blackgang Chine!!!!!
