The Age (Melbourne, Vic. : 1854 - 1954), p. 11. Retrieved February 2, 2026, from http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article203840965 Caption: "Garden Week, which opens to-day at Wirth's Park, will present the best of the Autumn flowers, together with seasonal shrubs and trees, grown by Victorian Horticulturists. Girl students are here seen preparing one of the exhibits. The display will continue until Saturday inclusive." Description: Female gardeners from the School of Horticulture, Burley, preparing an exhibit for Autumn Garden Week located at Wirth's Park on the site of the current Melbourne Arts Centre. A horticultural training establishment commenced at Burnley in 1891. Women were allowed to attend from 1899 under the enlightened leadership of Charles Luffman. By 1934, following the tragic impacts of World War One, women were both required and determined to earn a living and to be paid landscape architects, designers and managers. Wearing trousers and overalls was an outward indicator that should they wish, they could be horticulturalists, not just gardeners. Garden Week was billed as one of the most important floral displays held in Australia, showcasing flowers, fruit and vegetables, bulbs, succulents, garden ornaments, practical appliances and garden literature. There were large display halls and model gardens - designed to provide inspiration to the amateur gardener and showcase Victorian producers. Featured in "Newsworthy: Melbourne in photographs 1933-1936" exhibition at East Melbourne Library, October to December 2023. Exhibition caption by project volunteer, Louise McKenzie. In January 2026, volunteer Fiona Collyer contacted Burnley Campus Archives at University of Melbourne to share the image. Jane Wilson, Manager of the Burnley Campus Archives, University of Melbourne, supplied the following information: "I find that we actually have that photograph as a newspaper cutting, sent in from a former student. This is some additional information: Students are: Evelyn Yule (1932), Betty Holmes (1932), Margaret Doherty (1932) and Alice Glascodine (later Mrs. Tucker) (1933). Alice sent us the newspaper cutting." Alice didn't specify who was who in the photograph but noted: "An earlier cataloguer had thought Alice was the one on the right, but I’m not sure."Photographer notations on slide: "B21".gardens, events, 1930-1939, horticulture, world war 1, gardening, women gardeners, jodhpurs, clothing and dress, burnley horticultural college

Date is approximate. The teacher is presumed to be Miss Susan Kelsall; 3 of the children are identified as: Back row left: Thora Holmes Back row right: Gwen Evans and Betty Austin. Miss Kelsall was registered as a primary and music teacher in 1908. In 1919 she had a school at Wyclif Church in Norfolk Road. From 1924-1930 the school was in the hall, perhaps built for her, at 426 Canterbury Road, just west of Warrigal Road. This was demolished in 1985; a gum tree marked the spot.Black and white photo of a teacher holding a book and 3 rows of children in front of a weatherboard wall with a brick chimney protruding from the wall.
