Photo
Photo of former St Mary's College library established by the first Principal of the College - Mother Francis Frewin The Collection was later amalgamated with the Newman College Collection to form the Academic Centre Newman/St Mary's.This photo is significant because it shows what the former library of St Mary's College looked like. This is important for new students of the College and also for alumni who might want to reminisce about their time at the college and their days spent studying in the library.It also bears witness to the foresight of the Principal at the time who viewed the library as an important part of the College.Francis Frewin Library St Mary's College, University of Melbourne - interior viewSt Mary's Collegemother francis frewin, st mary's college library -

This document (dated 1911), is a receipt covering the compensation for the three acres of land required to establish the Tawonga School from its original site (since 1880) to a more central site (since 1911), within the township.

Matters involving community welfare in relatively isolated rural regions was of high priority to every person whether town folk or grazier/farmer or miner. The letter of acceptance of the amount of twenty one pounds for three acres was signed by John Cooper on behalf of Ada Ryder (parent at the school), did not require State Government Compulsory Acquisition process (as it may have, had it been in the latter part of the century and if it were in a city or large town.
