Plans develop for Earth Day opening

We are planning a bumper program of events for the 2010 season and kicking things off with our opening on Earth Day, 22nd April.

Come down to the award-winning Joggins Fossil Centre where there will be free admission, talks and some great activities for children to get them thinking about the planet in celebration of Countdown 2010, the International Year of Biodiversity.

We are hoping to be able to unveil the plans for our amazing new playground and have a small travelling exhibition entitled "Have you thanked a plant today?"
