The 1st Kew Scouts was one of the first Scout Troops in Victoria, being formed in 1909. From 1927 they met in a magnificent Scout Hall in Disraeli Street, Kew until it was demolished in 1993. Still operating (in 2020) from their new Scout Hall on the corner of Kilby Road and Kellett Grove, Kew.1st Kew Scouts undertaking water rescue training at Bulleen. The photograph was most likely taken while the Scouts were camping beside the river one summer, with the programs generally including not only fun and games but also varying training activities. At the time many locals swam in the river. 1924 was well before the construction of major water storage dams and urbanisation of the upper reaches of the Yarra River, which significantly reduced downstream flows and water quality. These days, the Scouts tend to raft and canoe in the Yarra, rather than swim. On front: 1924.

Paterson Hall Story is told through the reminiscences of 23 people who played an active part in the life of a popular recreational and entertainment hub from 1929 to 1999. They relate how a simple concrete structure in Glenferrie Road, Kooyong became a 'home away from home' for people who were blind or vision impaired, their families and friends. The hall was originally built as a clubhouse for blind cricketers in 1927, but by 1929 it had been extended to include a social hall and other facilities including a verandah where spectators could watch the cricket. Over the years the hall was used for activities as diverse as square dancing, singing, craft classes, ball games, art and craft shows, drama groups and annual meetings.60 MP3 sound files of oral history interviews and book excerptsNarrated by Maurice Lockie, Bill Charles and Norah Tooheypaterson hall, association for the advancement of the blind, victorian blind cricket association

The 120 cards in these two albums are very varied in content. There are many of birds and animals, some of great artwork reproductions, some of famous places and buildings, a couple of V.F.L. footballers, two from the Melbourne Olympic Games, some matching pairs and a couple of Australian aboriginal art work. They are all of high quality and many are very beautiful. Swap card collecting was a popular activity for young girls throughout the 20th century and cards were swapped with friends and sometimes sold. Usually the cards, bought from newsagents and fancy goods shops, were kept loose in a school bag or pocket and so the number of cards and the type varied from week to week. Boys also often saved cards of a particular nature – sports cards, nature cards etc though the idea of ‘swapping’ was not so prevalent among the boys. Card collecting, usually promoted by a business concern or a toy company, is still a pastime for young people today. The cards in these two albums are of considerable interest as they are of good quality and are aesthetically pleasing. They also are good examples of a popular hobby of girls in the 20th century. .1 & .2 These two albums are similar in size and design. Both have grey/pale green covers with red printing on the front cover. Both are bound with two staples and both contain 10 pages with inserts to hold three cards each side of the page.

There is evidence of silverfish damage on the front covers of both albums. hobbies of the past, history of warrnambool

Jacana Primary School, established in 1959 in Melbourne’s northern suburbs, was part of a post-war expansion of public education aimed at supporting families in rapidly growing suburban communities. By 1983, the school had become a well-established institution, known for its inclusive environment and strong community ties. Sport and physical education were central to student life at Jacana Primary, with games like rounders offering opportunities for teamwork, physical development, and social interaction. Rounders, a bat-and-ball game with similarities to baseball, was a popular playground and inter-school sport during the 1980s, especially among primary-aged students. The 1983 Rounders group photograph captures the spirit of school sport during this era—highlighting the importance of participation, camaraderie, and school pride. It also reflects broader trends in 1980s school life, including uniforms, hairstyles, and recreational activities. As Jacana Primary has since closed, this image serves as a valuable record of the school’s vibrant sporting culture and its role in shaping the everyday experiences of students in Melbourne’s north.The 1983 Rounders group photograph from Jacana Primary School is a culturally and historically significant artefact that captures the spirit of student life and sport during a formative period in the school’s history.

It preserves the memory of a school that played a vital role in the social and educational development of children in Melbourne’s northern suburbs.A colour photograph on satin finish paper(Back blue label): PH-5388, (Back-stamp): Fujicolor /Paperjacana, jacana primary school, group photograph, team photograph, rounders, 1983
