The St. Albans State School, now the St. Albans Primary School opened in 1889 and is one of the oldest continuously operating schools in Melbourne’s western suburbs. The school was founded by early farming families shortly after the suburb itself was created by Alfred Padley and the Cosmopolitan Land & Banking Co. around the railway line. Local families needed a permanent school to replace informal or church-based teaching arrangements and this school was built. St. Albans grew dramatically after WWII due to migrant settlement and with industrial expansion in Sunshine, Tottenham, and Braybrook. The school was expanded with additional classrooms, specialist rooms (art, library, music) and larger playgrounds and assembly areas. By the 1960s–70s, the state School was a major multicultural school serving a rapidly growing suburb. For more than a century, the school has been central to migrant education, local civic life, community events and fetes The school has tight partnerships with the St. Albans High School and other local institutions. The school remains one of the longest running institutions in the district. St. Albans Primary School received its current name in 1970, when the Victorian Education Department changed all “State School” names to “Primary School.” St. Albans Primary School continues to operate on its original site and remains a key part of the educational landscape of Melbourne’s western suburbs.st. albans primary school, west esplanade, st. albans, st. albans state school

Joyce Snow was born in Avenel and came to Beechworth at the age of twenty-three. She grew up at Bundarta, a place just out of Shepparton. Her father was a soldier who was part of the 37th Battallion while her mother's family were some of the pioneers of Beechworth--the Duracks. She finished school at about thirteen years old, did a correspondence course, and when she was old enough, she went training for nursing. Joyce was a trained nurse at the old Mooroopna Base, Hospital. She working at a Hospital in Shepparton when Manpower sent her to Beechworth. She arrived at Beechworth in 1943 at a train in Wangaratta. She had been a nurse in Beechworth for more than seven years. She got married in Beechworth and had three children, two girls and one boy. By the time of her third child, she studied a one year supplementary course on Psychy at May Day. Joyce had nursed prisoners of the First World War. She shared about the differences of medical practice back then in comparison to now. This oral history recording was part of a project conducted by Jennifer Williams in the year 2000 to capture the everyday life and struggles in Beechworth during the twentieth century. This project involved recording seventy oral histories on cassette tapes of local Beechworth residents which were then published in a book titled: Listen to what they say: voices of twentieth century Beechworth. These cassette tapes were digitised in July 2021 with funds made available by the Friends of the Burke.Joyce Snow's account of her life in the early 20th century is historically and socially significant to the cultural heritage of the region. She gave information about the settlements and life of the prisoners of First World War, the early forms of entertainment, education system and societal roles. She also mentioned changes in employment and migrant communities. This oral history account is socially and historically significant as these accounts provide a unique insight into the day-to-day life of the town's residents during the 20th century, many of which will have now been lost if they had not been preserved.This is a digital copy of a recording that was originally captured on a cassette tape. The cassette tape is black with a horizontal white strip and is currently stored in a clear flat plastic rectangular container. It holds up 40 minutes of recordings on each side.Joyce Snowburke museum, beechworth, hospital, oral history, nursing, nurse, first world war, prisoners of war, tatatura, moonrapna, peritontitis, doctors, tuck shops, largactil, rock films, victoria park, kings in grass castle, durack, duracks, glory box, d'oylies

Maribyrnong High School opened in 1958. The school served in the rapidly growing Maidstone and Maribyrnong districts. During the post war and migration era’s (1950s–1970s), the school became increasingly multicultural due to the nearby Maribyrnong Migrant Hostel (opened 1949) with many European, Middle Eastern, and later Asian migrant students. The school became known for its multicultural student body and union activism in the 1970s. This included the 1971 teacher’s “Control of Entry” strike of 11 weeks, one of the most important industrial actions in Victorian education history that helped to establish the principle that all students must be taught by qualified teachers. The school was later renamed to the Maribyrnong Secondary College and then Maribyrnong College. The school is now well known for its sports academy program. maribyrnong high school, river street, maribyrong, maidstone
