The museum is full of information and with volunteers who rebuilt the hut, first hand information on the Antarctic is had.

A cold blustery day in Hobart - 5 degrees and snow on the mountain. A colorful group of visitors seeking shelter.

The first school to return their painted penguins to us for the Australian Antarctic Festival is Edith Creek Primary - and we love them!! There will be 5500 displayed in various spots around the Hobart waterfront, with 110 schools participating!

A little shout out to our favourite schools!! Do you know you can come into Hobart in September during the Australian Antarctic Festival, and take the children onto the Aurora Australis on a special open day? Why not combine with visiting us at the Replic
