Melbourne City Christmas Treasure Hunt
Ahoy, me mateys! Are you ready for a daring adventure? This Christmas, come along on an exciting treasure hunt based on the book, Oceanforged, by Amelia Mellor. Collect a treasure map from Mary Martin Bookshop in Southbank and embark on a quest for clues among Melbourne's landmarks.
This year's treasure hunt is based on Oceanforged, an exciting new series by Amelia Mellor, bestselling author of The Grandest Bookshop in the World. Oceanforged is an exciting high seas adventure with a magical quest, dastardly pirates and enchanted armour.
The treasure hunt begins and ends at Mary Martin Bookshop and is aimed at children between 5 and 12 (although all are welcome to take part). This year's route takes approximately an hour and a half to complete and includes short stretches by tram.
All children who complete the treasure hunt and solve the code will receive a small prize.
Closed Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
