Mission to Seafarers Victoria
Album (item) - Photograph Album, "Snapshots", c. 1950
This album was found with notes and letter from the donor Sadie Wilson a former member of the Ladies Harbour Light Guild and later Flying angels club. An HLG member in the immediate post WW2 period through to the 60s and possibly later, Sadie was recontacted in the early 2000s and participated in a reunion of former HLG members at the Mission. That is likely when she loaned or donated this album to the Mission. Along with her friend Berenice, Sadie also provided reminiscences of the Guild in the documentary "Light Bearers" filmed by Csilla Csongway and Matt Blackwood in 2003.Sadie Wilson's album has assisted with the cross referencing, verification, dating and identification of other images and material in the MTS found Archive. Her reminiscences provide an important rare verbatim insight into the experience of being a member of HLG in the mid 20th C.

Photograph - Team Photograph, Jacana Primary School: Soccer Team 1989
Jacana Primary School was established in 1959 during a period of significant suburban growth in Melbourne’s northern corridor. Located in the suburb of Jacana, the school was part of a broader post-war initiative to provide accessible public education to families settling in newly developed housing estates. The area became home to a diverse population, including many migrant families, contributing to a rich and evolving community identity. By the late 1980s, Jacana Primary had developed a strong reputation not only for its academic programs but also for its vibrant extracurricular activities. Sport, particularly soccer, played a central role in school life. It was a unifying force that brought students together across cultural and social backgrounds, fostering teamwork, resilience, and school spirit. Soccer’s popularity reflected broader demographic trends, as many students came from communities where the sport held cultural significance. The 1989 soccer team photograph captures this dynamic period in the school’s history. It represents more than athletic achievement—it reflects the values of inclusion, participation, and pride that defined Jacana Primary’s approach to education. The image also serves as a visual record of the school’s role in shaping community cohesion and providing opportunities for personal growth beyond the classroom. Jacana Primary School closed in the early 2000s, but its legacy endures through photographs like this one, which offer valuable insights into the lived experiences of students and the social fabric of Melbourne’s northern suburbs during a time of transformation.This 1989 colour photograph of Jacana Primary School’s soccer team captures the vitality and camaraderie of a school that stood as a pillar of its community from 1959 until its closure in the early 2000s. Far more than a routine team portrait, the image embodies the spirited sporting culture that was central to student life and community connection during the late 1980s. The photograph preserves treasured memories of teamwork, school pride, and youthful enthusiasm, offering a lens into the social atmosphere and extracurricular priorities of the time. It serves as a visual testament to the role of sport in promoting inclusion, resilience, and a sense of belonging—values that were deeply embedded in Jacana Primary’s educational philosophy and community legacy in Melbourne’s northern suburbs.A colour photograph of a school Soccer team on satin finish photo paper.PH-4119 (white label) Top Centre PH-4404(blue label) Top Centre Right Manufactures mark; This paper/ Manufactured/ By Kodakjacana primary school, photograph, school photograph, education, soccer team, 1989 -

Functional object - Vaginal Insufflator for Silver Picrate, 1940's
The medical instrument is used for the treatment of Trichomonas Vaginitis. Insufflation has been a medical practice since the early nineteenth century, the earliest mention of it appearing in 1823. There are descriptions of its therapeutic and diagnostic purposes in connection with almost every cavity of the body. Despite being used widely across many Victorian health institutions, insufflation has not been regarded as a dangerous procedure.The object is significant because it is representative of medical treatments used to cure sexually transmitted diseases in Aradale Mental Hospital in the 1940's. Black leatherette covered wooden box with a metal latch on the front and 2 hinges at the rear. "Wyeth Vaginal insufflator for silver picrate" printed on inside of lid.

Flagstaff Hill Maritime Museum and Village
Container - Bottle, Singer Sewing Machine Company, Circa 1878
The artefact is a glass sewing machine oil bottle recovered from the 1878 shipwreck of the Loch Ard near Port Campbell. It was raised by Flagstaff Hill divers in 1973. The sewing machine oil bottle was used to lubricate a sewing machine mechanism and supplied with new Singer sewing machines as part of the items tool kit. The Loch Ard was constructed on the Clyde in 1873 for the prestigious Loch Line of colonial clipper ships, designed for the Australian run. She sailed from England on 1 March 1878 carrying 37 crew, 17 passengers and a diverse general cargo ranging from luxury items to bulk railway iron. On 1 June 1878, emerging from fog and hearing too late the sound of breakers against the tall limestone cliffs, the vessel struck the southern foot of Mutton Bird Island and sank in 23 meters of water. Of the fifty-four people on board, only two survived, one young male crewman, Tom Pearce, and one young female passenger, Eva Carmichael. (See References or Notes below for further details.)The bottle is believed to be part of the cargo or passenger goods recovered from the Loch Ard that is of historical significance for Victoria. Registered on the Victorian Heritage Register ( S 417). Flagstaff Hill has a varied collection of artefacts from the Loch Ard. Its collection is significant for being one of the largest accumulation of artefacts from this notable Victorian shipwreck. The object gives us a snapshot into maritime history so we can interpret the story of this tragic event. The collection of marine objects is archaeologically significant as it represents aspects of Victoria's shipping history that allows us to interpret Victoria's social and historical themes of the time with this wreck being one of the worst and best-known shipwrecks in Victoria's history. Clear glass oil bottle, rectangular body with concave sides. The bottle has raised inscriptions on the glass.The bottle contained Singer Sewing Machine Oil bottle.
