The program describes the performance as 'original burlesque' and was written, composed and produced by A E Woffinden and A W Sutton, members of the Chatham Fathers' Club, to raise money for the school. There were 250 programs printed at a cost of one pound fifteen shillings. This performance starred 21 of the fathers with Mr W Crellin as the only female character, Miss Eileen Flapper. The Chatham Fathers' Club became renowned locally for the quality of its performances, repeats being given to other community organisations. In the publication 'Chatham Past & Present: A Patchwork of People' there is also a photo of the cast taken in the quadrangle of the school. The original program and photo were lent to the school at the time of the 70 year reunion in 1997 by Mrs Jean Lacy (nee Walker), whose father took part as a member of the jury. Many of the performers were also in the formal photo of the Father's Club, taken in February 1928 on the front steps of the school. The original hangs in the school entry foyer and is reproduced in 'A Patchwork of People: Chatham Past and Present'. In relation to names, these are better identified and the following identifications have been reached by referencing this and the 1931 electoral roll. The geographic spread of addresses reflects that when Chatham opened in August 1927, surrounding schools were overcrowded and some families chose to relocate their children. Albert Ernest Woffinden (manufacturer) lived at 14 Banool Road, Surrey Hills. Alfred William Sutton (clerk) lived at 528 Whitehorse Road, Surrey Hills. Mr A Davidson - not found in electoral roll. Walter Dallas Kinross (mechanic) lived at 72 Empress Road, Surrey Hills. Gilbert Leslie (Bert) Rae (sales) lived at 63 Empress Road, Surrey Hills. Mr Joseph P Braddick (mechanic) lived at 1 Northcote Avenue, Canterbury; now Balwyn (NB/ Name is miss-spelt Braddock in the program). Norman Patrick Smart (bt opr) lived at 61 Sir Garnet Road, Surrey Hills. Henry Albert Wysham (show card writer) lived at 9 Northcote Avenue, Canterbury. Mr Sidney Bessant (labourer) lived at 191 Mont Albert Road, Canterbury. William Morrison (teacher) lived at 37 Chatham Road, Canterbury. William Charles Crellin (breadcarter) lived at 59 Empress Road, Surrey Hills. Mr F Parsons - taken as Fred Parsons (bricklayer) lived at 2 Kaarumba Grove, Balwyn. Mr MacDougal (incorrectly spelt in program) is Dougall MacDougall (gas collector) lived at 5 Wells Street, Surrey Hills. Mr A V Webb - not found. Mr McKie - not found. Victor Harold Theodore Clow (civil servant) lived at 4 Talbot Avenue, Balwyn; listed as T. Clow. Mr M Walker (donor's father) not found in electoral roll for 1931; thought to have lived in Sir Garnet Road. Mr McLeod - a number listed in the 1931 electoral roll. Richard Frost (carriage builder) lived at 341 Mont Albert Road, Surrey Hills. Mr Allen - a number listed in the 1931 electoral roll. Mr J Tulloch - not found in the 1931 electoral roll. This is an example of 'home-spun' entertainment and creativity of the era when the sense of community was very real. It is an example of the fundraising efforts undertaken by school communities to provide 'extras' that would later be regarded as 'basics'. For many years the sense of community in this part of Surrey Hills revolved around Chatham school, the Benson Street Methodist Church and the football club, located at the Canterbury Recreation Ground.A photocopy of the programme for the Chatham Primary School Fathers' Club "Trial by Jury" performance on 16 November 1929.

Jacana Primary School was established in 1959 during a period of rapid suburban expansion in Melbourne’s northern suburbs. Located in the suburb of Jacana, the school was part of a broader post-war effort to provide accessible public education to families moving into newly developed housing estates. The area quickly became home to a diverse population, including many migrant families, contributing to a rich and evolving community identity. By the early 2000s, Jacana Primary had become a reflection of Melbourne’s multicultural landscape. The school embraced this diversity through inclusive teaching practices, community engagement, and programs that celebrated cultural heritage. Graduation ceremonies, such as the one captured in the 2004 photograph, were important milestones that marked not only academic achievement but also the culmination of shared experiences and personal growth within a supportive school environment. The 2004 Grade 6 Graduation holds particular significance as it occurred during the final years of the school’s operation. Jacana Primary closed in the early 2000s as part of broader changes in educational policy and demographic shifts. This photograph, therefore, serves as both a celebration and a farewell—preserving the memory of a school that played a formative role in the lives of generations of children and families in Melbourne’s northern suburbs.This 2004 photograph of Jacana Primary School’s Grade 6 Graduation offers a vivid and meaningful snapshot of suburban school life in Melbourne during a time of significant social and urban transformation. Taken in the final years of the school’s operation, the image captures a milestone moment for students at an institution that had served as a vital educational and community hub since its establishment in 1959. More than a record of academic achievement, the photograph reflects the school’s enduring commitment to fostering an inclusive, supportive, and culturally diverse learning environment. By the early 2000s, Jacana had become a reflection of Melbourne’s evolving demographic landscape, with families from a wide range of cultural backgrounds contributing to a rich and dynamic school community. As part of Jacana Primary’s visual archive, this image not only preserves the memory of a significant rite of passage but also contributes to a broader understanding of how public education shaped community identity, promoted social cohesion, and left a lasting legacy in the lives of generations of children and families in Melbourne’s northern suburbs.Colour Photograph on satin finish photographic paper, with blue borders top & BottomBack: Top Left Corner: (Blue Label): PH-4472, Bottom Left Corner: (Black Biro): PH-4373: PH 18383 (crossed out) JACANA PRIMARY SCHOOL /GRADE 6 GRADUATION - 2004 jacana primary school, education, photograph, group photograph, maja sormaz, hung phan, lauren syaranaamul., breanna nash, yeliz akyildiz, mohammad matar, jordan megne, ms carol taylor, ms marie killender (aide), mrs luba bojcuk, grade 6 graduation - 2004
