Year 3 students at Unley Primary School were astonished when they made an unusual discovery in the depths of the sandpit in Tommy’s Garden on Thursday morning.

UPS Principal Peter O’Sullivan said nothing like this has ever been discovered before on school grounds.

“The children appear to have dug further than any student in the past, and I really believe that they have discovered something completely unique,” Mr O’Sullivan commented.

“Scientists are currently examining the students’ discovery, but UPS kids are also on the case and I have faith that they will soon be able to share their remarkable finding.”
