Book, Jill Sebire, As I remember-- : memories of life in the Wandin district, 2006
Beenak Road, Wandin Hall, the Stringybark Creek, Clements' shop, Wandin Yallock State School... all names that spark vivid memories for anyone who has lived in or around Wandin in Victoria's Yarra Valley. Jill Sebire invited a wide cross-section of 'locals' to share their memories of community and family life. The result is a rich and entertaining group of personal stories. This is not a formal history, though it covers many of the milestones of the community's growth since European settlement in the 1860s. Instead, it highlights the events, people and places that have stayed fresh in the writers' minds. 'As I Remember ..' ensures that these memories can be enjoyed into the future. Anyone who has lived in a small community will recognise many of the characters and activities. For those who have a connection with the Wandin district. 'As I Remember...' will bring back the sights and sounds of Saturday night dances, the annual trip to the beach, the Easter sports at the Wandin Recreation Ground, fruit-picking, football and cricket matches, and perhaps even the night the Rechabite Hall burnt down.(back cover)non-fictionBeenak Road, Wandin Hall, the Stringybark Creek, Clements' shop, Wandin Yallock State School... all names that spark vivid memories for anyone who has lived in or around Wandin in Victoria's Yarra Valley.

Ithacan Historical Society
Photograph, Apokries Festival, Ithaca, c1970s
The photo is taken in Vathi Ithaca at the Apokries carnival. It is the tradition to dress up and have fun. The Agios Prebezis and Papadia signs on the back of the two people in the foreground are satirising the church and relate to a scandal during the 1970s involving the Metropolitan of Prebesa (Prevesa) and a local priest's wife. The Apokries festival period traditionally begins ten weeks before Greek Orthodox Easter and culminates with fancy dress and masquerade parties on the weekend before Ash Monday, the first day of Lent. The name Apokries means abstention from meat, as during lent no meat is eaten. The Apokries festival dates back to Dionysos, the ancient Greek god of wine, fun and fertility. A coloured photograph of a crowd celebrating at a carnival. Two people with their backs to the camera are in fancy dress and are wearing hand written signs on their backs. The corners of the photograph are rounded. -
