FOLLOWING the new developments at the Yea Wetlands with the rebranding of the Discovery Centre to the Yea Wetlands Discovery Centre, now is the time to enjoy all it has to offer.

The installation of the Gurrong dharrang, Scarred Tree, artwork by Taungurung artist Sammy Trist is not to be missed.

Located at the entrance to the Discovery Centre, the sculpture of a eucalyptus tree features indigenous line art and the Taungurung totems, Bundjil the wedge–tailed eagle and Waang the crow.

This project was coordinated by the Honour the Taungurung Yea Community Group, including Taungurung Elder Aunty Angela ten Buuren, with funding from the Victorian Government's COVID–19 Aboriginal Community Response and Recovery Fund.

The Yea Fossil Time Path, which winds alongside the Yea Wetlands Discovery Centre and tells the story of this land's geographical history, including the Yea Baragwanathia Fossil, has also recently been rejuvenated with interpretive signage.

A new interactive display has been installed in the Russel Wealands interpretive wing and provides a fascinating insight into environmental water flows in local waterways.

The display was developed by the Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority and is a great addition to the educational experiences on offer at the Discovery Centre.

The website, visitor guide and new signage in the wetlands is a fantastic resource for visitors and locals alike to discover the many great things to see, do and explore in the area.
