part of a State Government and Local Government Council initiative to upgrade infrastructure on the north-west coast of Tasmania. Arts A community art centre, Artscape, has been operated by a volunteer committee since 2007. The centre hosts community groups, exhibitions and provides a space in which the community can foster their own artistic events. Infrastructure Education There are currently two government funded public schools in Wynyard, including Table Cape Primary School and Wynyard High School. There is also a catholic primary school, St Brigid's, adjacent to the catholic church of the same name. Previously, Wynyard Primary School (located at Gibbons Street) and Inglis Primary School (located at Bowick Street) existed separately. Both were renamed to Table Cape Primary School in 1998. The two school campuses were then merged in 2009, with the closing of the Bowick Street campus. Geographical features Freestone Cove Freestone Cove is a small sheltered bay on the northern fringes of Wynyard, towards Table Cape. Fossil Bluff Fossil bluff is a small protrusion of sandstone cliffs rising about from the coastline at Freestone Cove. In the 19th century, it was the discovery site of Australia's oldest fossil marsupial, Wynyardia bassiana, an extinct possum-like animal from the early Miocene (about 25 million years ago). Also recovered was an extinct genus of whale, Prosqualodon. Aboriginal fish traps It is believed the Aboriginal Tommeginer clan built tidal fish traps with rocks at Freestone Cove, the rocks are still evident today and are protected under the Aboriginal Relics Act. The Tommeginer tribe lived in the region along the coastline around Wynyard and Table Cape until soon after the arrival of Europeans in the 19th century. A considerable number of tidal fish traps have been found in the north and north-west of the state. The phenomena is attributed to the mean tidal range of two metres along this stretch of coastline, which is ideal for this type of construction. Whilst some of these traps were certainly built by Europeans, there is good reason to believe others were of Aboriginal construction, such as at Freestone Cove. Three other traps located at nearby Rocky Cape, Sisters Beach and Boat Harbour do not have established European origins, furthermore, all are located within the territory which was occupied by the Tommeginer tribe. Tidal fish traps must be located close to settlements or camps so that they can be monitored. Because as the tide ebbs, any fish
