It’s an outback Christmas

Emerald’s Outback Exploratorium was filled with the spirit of Christmas as children frolicked on the lawn playing games at a family fun night on Friday, 6 December.

There were friendly, festive elves handing out sweet treats, lucky shopper prizes and family photography sessions to make memories on the day.

The Exploratorium is running a host of children’s holiday activities.
