Case, Vinyl Record, Hits of the War Years, 1985
Vera Lynn was a popular artist during the Second World War, known for her wholesome and romantic songs. This record was released on the 40th anniversary of the end of the Second World War and contains twenty songs that were popular during the period, especially with serving troops. Vera Lynn was supposedly fondly referred to as the "Forces' Sweetheart." The record contains the following songs: SIDE ONE 1. (There'll be Bluebirds over) The White Cliffs of Dover 2. Harbour Lights 3. As Time Goes By 4. Beautiful Isle of Somewhere 5. Auf Wiederseh'n Sweetheart 6. Faraway Places 7. Little Sir Echo 8. Mexican Rose 9. A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square 10. Jealousy SIDE TWO 1. It's a Lovely Day To-morrow 2. The Bells of St. Mary's 3. A Little Rain Must Fall 4. The Anniversary Waltz 5. Yours 6. When I Grow Too Old To Dream 7. It's A Sin to Tell A Lie 8. When The Lights Go On Again 9. Drifting And Dreaming 10. We'll Meet AgainThough not rare, as a mass produced product, this record is representative of the music that was well-known during the 1940s both on the home front and by serving troops. Its release as an anniversary edition speaks to the enduring memory of the period and for some community members who lived through the Second World War, has strong social significance and ability to recall memories of the wartime period. Glossy square-shaped card sleeve printed in colour with combination of text and black and white photographs arranged as though a newspaper page. From top left corner: green stripe, red album title, union jack, photograph of a young servicewoman, photograph of the Cliffs of Dover, photograph of St Mary's and various song titles in various serif fonts. Newspaper-style page set behind metal square fencing upon brick fence, simulating a newspaper being sold. Reverse features pastel-toned photograph of Vera Lynn, with smaller collage-style image of the newspaper-style text on front, below which are song titles for Side One and Side Two in a numbered list. vera lynn, music, wartime, second world war, world war ii, world war 2, musicians, anniversary -

Photograph - Kirkland family photos
Ethelbert Cyril Kirkland was born in inner Melbourne on 1st November 1900, to Ethelbert George and Mary Ann (nee Cooke). His father died in 1912. On 4th June 1917, while living with his mother in South Yarra and working as a factory hand, Cyril enlisted in the Army. His height was 5' 8" and he gave his age as 18. He was officially enrolled on the 18th June and by October he was in England, specifically in hospital with mumps. After coming clean about his actual age in March 1918, he was discharged on 13th June 1918 and shipped back to Australia, having forfeited all his pay from March onward. On 9th December 1919 he enlisted again, stating he was a single man. He was by then working as a carpenter and had grown 3 inches. He was discharged on 2nd June the following year. He married Mary Ann Reynolds (b. 4th February 1906) on 7th March 1929. For a few years Mary and Cyril moved around, from Moonee Ponds to Iona and then Kelletts Road, Lysterfield. Cyril worked as a farmer and labourer. By 1941 they were running a dairy farm on Engelke Rd. Then they purchased the triangular block of land on (now) Belgrave-Hallam Rd from Mr & Mrs Clarke, where they built a dairy and ran that and a milk delivery service until selling it to Mr Dave Pollock in the 1950s. In 1952 they built the Belgrave South Garage on part of their land at the corner of Belgrave-Hallam Rd and Deviation Rd. Their son Robert (Bobby) ran the garage . Their daughter Mary married Jack Rae from Narre Warren North. Jack played football for Sth Belgrave. Mary died on 27th May 1957 and Cyril died on 6th April 1980. Our society has a long oral history which was recorded with Bobby Kirkland several years ago. -

Document - Document - Correspondence, VIOSH: Letters from the Commonwealth Tertiary Education Commission and Office of Minister for Employment and Industrial Relations, 1987
Victorian Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (VIOSH) Australia is the Asia-Pacific centre for teaching and research in occupational health and safety (OHS) and is known as one of Australia's leaders on the field. VIOSH has a global reputation for its innovative approach within the field of OHS management. VIOSH had its first intake of students in 1979. At that time the Institution was known as the Ballarat College of Advanced Education. In 1990 it became known as Ballarat University College, then in 1994 as University of Ballarat. It was 2014 that it became Federation University. VIOSH Australia students are safety managers, senior advisors and experienced OHS professionals. They come from all over Australia and industry. Students are taught active research and enquiry; rather than textbook learning and a one-size fits all approach. VIOSH accepts people into the Graduate Diploma of Occupational Hazard Management who have no undergraduate degree - on the basis of extensive work experience and knowledge.
