I want to say a huge thank you on behalf of the Hastings District Libraries.
When we found out that there were dinosaur enthusiasts that would bring their museum to us, we were ecstatic. Then you came and blew us away with a stunning collection of fossils, casts, models and displays. You are both natural and passionate storytellers that have perfected the art of memorable experiences for all 1586 people that came through your museum over two days. We had a lot of happy faces and wonderful comments across the two days, so many that we couldn’t keep track of them. We were surprised at how you were able to stay bright eyed and bushy tailed throughout the whole day. Legends Unleashed went above and beyond for our community and has fostered many budding dinosaur enthusiasts to explore and discover. A TITANOSAUR sized thank you for making this possible!

The dinosaurs are extending their visit with us and will be here tomorrow morning from 10am - 12pm. We had an amazing day with Aotearoa New Zealand’s original travelling interactive hands-on Dinosaur, Fossil & Rock Museum!
Make sure to come meet Dinosaur Darren, Rista the Raptor Trainer, and Tai, their lifelike Kiwi Velociraptor. Plus, explore their fossil discovery boxes where you can brush away the sand to uncover fossil casts and genuine fossils.

Thank You
Sir Richard Taylor for gifting this Life size Albertosaurus Skull to Dinosaur Darren which allows us to share it with our Kiwi Kids. To date thousands of school students, had hands opportunities with our amazing Museum quality Dinosaur skulls. Students have poked their fingers it it's eye and put their hands where its brains use to be... Students have also, learned why dinosaur skulls have big holes in their skulls, called Orbits and why dinosaur heads are not so heavy. Not to mention, dinosaur teeth grew back like a shark teeth - Just image... They never needed to floss. |

Thank you Dr Chris Consoli, Monash University Melbourne Australia for sending us a museum quality Fossil cast of a T rex size toe bone and other fossil casts. The actual fossils of the T rex toe bone was discovered in the Chatham Island in 2003 and this
fossil cast of the actual bone, we have received has excited thousands of kiwi kids in schools when; I shared with them the exacts place, where the the bone fits on a T Rex foot. This is not the only information we teach and share with students.
