'The progress made by Bialik College and the standard which at present has been attained, is certainly a credit to the headmaster Mr. Chowers, and to all those who have guided the College during its period of growth and development. This was said by Mr. Walter Jona, M.L.A, when he paid an official visit to the college on the invitation of the headmaster, Mr. Abraham Chowers. As one who is particularly interested in the Jewish Day School Movement, Mr. Jona took the opportunity to fully acquaint himself with the contribution being made to the movement by Bialik College which is the only Jewish Day School within his electorate. Mr. Jona toured all the classrooms and was particularly interested in the preparations being made for the Pesach Seder. In Grade 1 he was shown a Haggadah specially prepared for the children's use during the Seder complete with verse and illustrations. On leaving the college Mr. Jona commented, 'At Bialik the obvious enjoyment displayed by the children in their activities derived from both the teaching and environmental influence was most apparent.''shakespeare grove, 1960s -

The image features three children engaged in recreational activities: two lying on the grass and one actively chasing a football. The relaxed setting, with trees, benches, and picnic tables in the background, reflects the informal and joyful nature of the event. Jacana Primary School, established in 1959 and closed in the early 2000s, was a vital part of the local community, known for fostering both academic excellence and strong social bonds. Annual events like the Christmas picnic were central to the school’s culture, offering opportunities for students, staff, and families to connect outside the classroom in a spirit of celebration and community. This photo serves as a visual testament to the school’s emphasis on holistic education—where play, social interaction, and community engagement were valued alongside formal learning. It also highlights the importance of outdoor spaces like Greenvale Reservoir in supporting communal activities and childhood development during that era.This photograph, taken during Jacana Primary School’s 1990 Christmas picnic—likely held at Greenvale Reservoir—holds cultural and historical value as a visual record of community life and educational practices in Melbourne’s northern suburbs during the late 20th century. It captures a moment of informal recreation among students, reflecting the school’s emphasis on holistic development through social engagement and outdoor activity. Jacana Primary School, established in 1959 and closed in the early 2000s, played a pivotal role in shaping the educational and social landscape of the Jacana community. Events such as the annual Christmas picnic were emblematic of the school’s commitment to fostering inclusivity, connection, and celebration among students, staff, and families. The image is significant not only for its documentation of a specific event but also for its representation of broader themes in Australian public education—community involvement, the value of play, and the integration of social experiences into the school calendar. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Jacana Primary School and its contribution to the cultural fabric of the region.Colour Photograph on glossy paper in landscape formatPH18289 (crossed out) PH-4209 (crossed out) PH-4868/this paper/manufactured/by Kodakjacana primary school, christmas party, 1990, jacana
