Boulder Town Hall and War Museum
Honouring this year's NAIDOC Week, the City's Heritage Services team in partnership with the Goldfields Aboriginal Language Centre are hosting 'Mrs Kaparli's Wild Animal Discovery'.
Families can take wonder throughout the historic Burt St. Boulder, beginning at the Boulder Town Hall, and visit shops along Burt St. to find posters featuring Mrs Kaparli. They can write down the local Aboriginal names of animals on the posters and return to the Town Hall to collect a prize.
