Federation University Historical Collection
Booklet, Collingwood Technical School Prospectus, 1913
In the early years of the 20th century adequate technical education was lacking and became a focus in the Victorian Parliament. After much debate and discussion among politicians and educationalists, the 1910 Education Act No 2301 was passed, making possible the establishment of new technical schools to address the dearth of skilled trades people. In July 1912 Collingwood Technical School opened in the modified bluestone buildings at 35 Johnston St, originally built in 1853 as the Collingwood Town Hall and Court House. Within three weeks, there were 57 boys enrolled - studying preliminary carpentry and pattern-making, plumbing, engineering, sheet iron work and bricklaying. They attended two hours a night on three evenings a week. In 1913, the school opened its doors to juniors and took residence in new permanent buildings erected on the site. It was classified as a trades school by the State Education Department. Two years later courses in electrical wiring and electrical and mechanical engineering were introduced. In 1988 Preston College of TAFE and Collingwood College of TAFE merged to become Northern Metropolitan Institute of TAFE (NMIT). (http://victoriancollections.net.au/organisations/northern-melbourne-institute-of-tafe)Brown soft covered booklet of 40 pages. The contents include information relating to the Collingwood Technical School on 1913, including: Council members, constitution, standing orders, aim of the school, scholarships, advice to parents, Railway Fares, tram fares, General Rules to Students, Syllabus, English, Geography, Civics, Mathematics, Elementary Science, Woodwork, |Sheetmetalwork, evening course, carpentry, plumbing, joinery, and a list of students for 1912 Evening courses. collingwood technical school, collingwood, tafe, nmit, northern metropolitan institute of tafe -

Book, Bell, Diane, Listen to Ngarrindjeri women speaking =? Kungun Ngarrindjeri Miminar Yunnan, 2008
When the Ngarrindjeri women of South Australia asked Diane Bell if she would work with them in the running of some workshops to develop a booklet about culture and governance, none of them realised quite where it would take them. The Ngarridjeri women of South Australia reveal their thoughts, daily challenges, and visions for the future in this moving book. The stories range from charming and delightful to jarring and shocking, and delve into matters both social and personalÑincluding the Hindmarsh Island bridge controversy. Serving as a model for how indigenous and non-indigenous women can jointly write a book, this narrative can help indigenous women in other communities develop their own collective history and visions for the future.xiii, 145 p. : ill.
