This folder is a record of Ronald McKelvie's initial initiation into the Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes in 1962 and his subsequent affiliations with different Lodges. The most recent affiliation is with the Emerald Lodge on 13 May 1988. The Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes was originally founded in 1822 in England and in Sydney, Australia in the 1860s and in Victoria in 1913, providing social support and friendship for members and donations to registered Australian charities and the needy. An examination of the rule book shows quite prescribed formalities required of members. In the late 1950s there were more than 12,000 members in Victoria at 340 lodges but by the 2000s the membership numbers were rapidly decreasing. The Emerald Lodge no longer exists.This rule book and associated records provides an insight into an organisation for men which focused on member and community support and which had members throughout Victoria including at Emerald. Small dark blue ring binder book owned by Ronald McKelvie containing the rules and penalties of the Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes 1987; his initial initiation into the Order in 1962; and records of his membership of various Lodges over time..

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 in 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.Colour photographviosh, victorian institute of occupational safety and health, occupational hazard management, mary alvin, shayne arthur, tracey bence, terence bernutt, paul brooker, joe boras, dale brabham, jacqueline bryant, darryl casey, jim coyle, gregory creedon, wendy dobson, leanne edwards, james evans, paul gentles, nicholas giles, bethne goudie, michael hartshorn, peter haynes, andrew holmes, robert law, michael martin, david mckelvie, gerard mcmillan, phillip miles, anna mitchell, cameron montgomery, kenneth nolan, robert oliver, fred panozzo, phillip pennington, noel pickering, garry pirie, rhonda rathjen, yasmin saunders, jenine smith, zorn talevski, lenard thomas, paul thompson, kristi turner, patrick weston, john whale, glenn wiese, lisa wild
