Jacana Primary School, located in Melbourne’s northern suburbs, served the local community for several decades before its closure. By 1986, the school had become a reflection of the area’s growing cultural diversity and suburban development. The mid-1980s were a time of significant change in Australian education, with increasing emphasis on inclusive learning, student leadership, and community engagement. Grade 6 marked a pivotal year for students, often representing the culmination of their primary education and preparation for the transition to secondary school. Class photographs from this period not only document the students and staff but also capture broader social and cultural trends—such as the fashion, hairstyles, and classroom dynamics of the era. This photograph is part of a broader visual history that helps preserve the memory of Jacana Primary School’s role in shaping young lives and fostering a strong sense of local identity. It stands as a reminder of the friendships, learning experiences, and community spirit that defined the school during the 1980s.This 1986 Grade 6 class photograph from Jacana Primary School is a valuable historical record that captures a moment in time within a now-closed educational institution. It reflects the school’s strong sense of community, cultural diversity, and commitment to nurturing young learners during a formative stage of their development. The image also offers a glimpse into the fashion, hairstyles, and social atmosphere of the mid-1980s, making it a meaningful artefact for past students, staff, and the wider Jacana community. Preserving this photograph helps honour the legacy of the school and its role in shaping local identity and childhood experiences.A colour photograph on Matte photograph paperBack: Top left Corner: PH-2127 (blue label) Manufacturer's Mark: Fujicolor Paperjacana primary school, photograph, school photograph, education, 1986, r darren d'angelo, bobbie glen, paul harris, gavin so., clinton paine, ada chong, kelly smith, tabitha headrick, helen papaevangelou, leonie green., annette robinson, deborah lamont, stephen kalenjuk, paul knostenbergs, sharon montebello, stale kasmski, neomi baxter, martin cera, elian jeffrie, david jeffrie, mr. james carlin
