Melbourne Legacy
Newspaper - Article, Student Toymakers, 1977
An article from 1977 about a scheme by the Education department whereby toys are donated to charities such as Legacy which was in place since 1949. Sometimes these toys and clothing were given to junior legatees at the Christmas party. The photo shows four boys from Dromana Technical School making toys in their woodworking class. They are Richard Freeman, Ray Bryant, Shane Matthews and Wayne Poulton. The article was cut from the newspaper and pasted into a scrapbook. For many years Legacy kept scrapbooks of press clippings that related to their work and publicity. Not all pages have been listed individually but some are listed from 02164 to 02176.A record of the scheme that provided gifts for Junior Legatees for many years since 1949.Newspaper article about school boys donating toys made in 1977 pasted to brown page of a scrapbook.christmas, christmas gifts, donations -
