Photographer T. Wood, St George's Studios operated frpm 238 Bourke St East, Melbourne from about 1891 through to 1897 at which point the premises was taken over by Yeoman & Co in 1898 CABINET 1866-1905 The Cabinet photo was introduced in 1866 in answer to a demand for a larger format photograph which could be mounted for a cabinet or on the wall. They were 4.5 inches by 6.5 inches (11.5 x 16.5 cm), more than twice the size of the cdv. They cost about twice as much as a cdv but eventually displaced them. They were not extensively produced until 1880 and had ceased by 1905. Coloured mounts, especially maroon or green, indicate a date between 1880 and 1890. - Frost, Lenore; Dating Family Photos 1850-1920; Valiant Press Pty.

The current school, Albion Primary School, No 4265 opened in 1926. It was built on a site once owned by John Fitzgerald (1850s). The land was later acquired by H. V. McKay who had transferred his Sunshine Harvester Works to the area in 1905 - 7. In 1920, the Albion railway station was moved nearer Ballarat Road at the request of Mr McKay. More people came to live in the area including soldier settlers.Albion Primary School's mission is to 'Aim High' in all we do so that our students grow to be socially capable, reach their full academic potential and become caring, respectful community minded people. Albion Primary School is located in a residential area in Albion, a small pocket of the local government area of Brimbank, approximately 10 kilometres west of Melbourne and was established in 1926. Our current enrolment is 199 students. We have a rich cultural diversity amongst our school community. The school is set around a courtyard with spacious playing areas including a grassed oval, running track, games courts, an adventure playground, sand pit, jumping pits, shady courtyard and garden areas, a vegetable garden and fruit tree orchard. As well as classroom groups, we have our learning teams, student house groups (siblings are allocated to the same house) and a Junior School Council. The school has four main buildings. All classrooms have air conditioning and interactive screens. Block A houses classrooms, staff areas and the administration offices. Our newest building has classrooms and some small group/office spaces. Block B includes our library, canteen and a multi-purpose room used for indoor physical education, Perceptual Motor Program, drama, visiting performers, and community activities. Block C houses classrooms and specialist rooms. We expect and receive the best from our students in terms of their learning and behaviour. The school’s dedicated and effective staff is strongly committed to helping students achieve personal, behavioural, social and academic success. In terms of learning, the highest priority is placed on the work in English and Mathematics. We also have a range of specialist and extra-curricular programs that we provide. Our specialist teacher-librarian is involved in reading extension programs that support development in literacy. All children are able to develop their artistic abilities through visual arts and music program. Our music program is supported by the Australian Children's Music Foundation. A specialist Physical Education teacher provides lessons for all children as well as the opportunity for students to participate in organised lunch time sporting competitions between the house groups. Auslan is the additional language all students learn at Albion. All children participate in a student wellbeing program that focuses on developing strong connections and a sense of belonging within the school. Our school student leaders participate in programs that help develop their leadership skills. 5148.01 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 1 2R 5148.01 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 1 2R Names Front Row L2R Michelle Gauci Miki ORegan Jessica James Jessika Bilanovic Tracey Coldrey Sarah Kennedy Caterina Viterale Jessica Smith Second Row L2R Vanessa Dano Rory Markovic Sarah Quinsee Jarrod Montague Jason Hamilton Anna Evangelista Aaron Gray Andrew Demicoli Back Row L2R Darren Cain Madelaine Burrows Dillion Hayward Rachel Jude Joseph Leggio Aaron Batty Absent Krystal Spiteri Mario James Teacher Mrs Patricia Porigneaux Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.02 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 2 3H 5148.02 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 2 3H Names Front Row L2R Rachel Testa Hakan Beyit Bradley Dale Brodie Wightman Raja Shah Corey Pearson Brooke Elso Second Row L2R Samuel Sella Ashleigh Barnett Jacquiline Mayne Amanda Kennedy Kathleen Maguire Dale Bavage Raymond Gulan Back Row L2R Ryan Tishlet Troy Hearn Andrew Kinder Aaron Neumann Ross Wileman Sarah Caruana Absent Pamela Broadwood Teachers Mr Haren Mrs Farrugia Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.03 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 3 4SW 5148.03 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 3 4SW Names Front Row L2R Shaun Wright Matthew Sultana Jessie Lyon Ilona Berecz Scott Kirby Sarah Demicoli Stephanie Theuma Lucian Harabor Phuc Ung Second Row L2R James Nardella Daniel Hall Matthew Gulan Jay Swift Ben Scicluna Ashleigh Vandenberg Matthew Kindred Michael Baker Kent Hunyh Back Row L2R Evelyn Cameron Alex Burrows Jarrod Heath Viorica Neascu Jackie Roberts Paul Harrip Belinda Pollard Lesley Gray Absent Beth Anh Nguyen Teachers Mrs J Sullivan Mrs T Woods Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.04 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 4EW 5148.04 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 4EW Names Front Row L2R Jun Yang Rebecca Meilak Van Nguyen Kristy Butterfield Ryan Loft Mrisa Grima Candeece Brown Marlena Chajter Stephen Archer Second Row L2R Cristanto Evangelista Caylan Goring Joseph Scicluna Helena Lake Zorica Stanojevic Christina Brooks Michael Berecz Kyle Strinovic Absent Ian Spiteri Teachers Mrs A Erwood Mrs T Woods Principal Mr Alan Jones Back Row L2R 5148.05 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 5 6C 5148.05 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 5 6C Names Front Row L2R Trinh Ung Elizabeth Trinh Jenny Keane Kylie Skew Kim Duffy Kayte Whitlow Andrea Gonzalez Ngoc Nguyen Second Row L2R Jacob Savage Terry Kaminnyj Mark Dale Adam Souter Gregg Dennis Brent Davis Nicholas Pahos Tony Trajkovski Third Row L2R Luke McComb Maucauley Goring Tim Perry Ebony Batty Edin Karastanovic Ravinder Shah Stevie White Back Row L2R Jillian Allender Sara Christopoulos Jarema Bogdanowicz Melissa Jude Maria Brown Absent John Harmsworth Scotland Mayo Carlos James Teacher Mr Tom Cook Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.06 - Albion State School 1995 Grade Prep 1F 5148.06 - Albion State School 1995 Grade Prep 1F Names Front Row L2R Jennifer Pucek John Clifton Bradley Rolfe Andy Moffitt Matthew Archer Steve Bernacki Michael Darby Jackson Ash Yu Second Row L2R Michael Trice Stacey Hamilton Adrian Wooding Larissa Barnett Tiffany Thomas Gavin Stone Katherine Ho Reno Ierafa Back Row L2R Thomas Foss Mathew Tiemes Doreen Roberts Troy Strinovic Matthew Baker Ana Maria Ast Daniel Harmsworth Richky Lyos Teacher Mrs Ann Fabbro Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.07 - Albion State School 1995 Grade Prep 1H 5148.07 - Albion State School 1995 Grade Prep 1H Names Front Row L2R Aaron Trough Samantha Williams Matthew Gauci Yukun Liang Cong Le Robert Anderson Caitlin Tippet Joshua Neumann Second Row L2R Alarna Swift Celebi Uzun John Tanuska Tom Morgan Mathew Grima Alison Testa Back Row L2R Sara Kindred Priya Shah Kylie Harrip Dwayne Brown Jilliah Johnson Absent Lisa Broadwood Teachers Julie Hrovatin Betty Batty Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.08 - Albion State School 1995 Staff 5148.08 - Albion State School 1995 Staff Names Front Row L2R Bogusia Goring Betty Batty Sue Rossa Alan Jones Jan Talbot Adrienne Erwood Pat Porigneaux Second Row L2R Rose Buttigieg Kellie Rozank Susan Carpenter Sandy Dennis Lorraine Farrugia Ann Fabbro Back Row L2R Joanne Sullivan Tom Cook Wayne Haren Teresa Woods albion state school, albion primary school, adelaide street, albion

The suitcase didn't catch on until the end of the 19th century, it was quite literally as a case for suits. A typical suitcase came equipped with an inner sleeve for storing shirts, and sometimes a little hatbox on the side. But even in the early 20th century, the "dress-suit case" was only one of countless styles of container travellers could buy, from steamer trunks to club bags. By the late 19th century a significant point was reached in the history of transportation, it was the beginning of mass tourism, rather than travel for travels sake made use of by the wealthy in society. Travel wasn't just for the wealthy any more but everyone. Suitcases began as an afterthought in the luggage and leather goods business, but they soon became the very symbol of travel. An 1897 wholesale price list included the words "suitcase" only twice in a 20-page list of luggage types. In America a 1907 T. Eaton & Co. Catalogue, trunks took up a full page while suitcases share a page with club bags and valises. In a 1911 a United Company catalogue, now displayed around 40 per cent of the advertisements were for suitcases. Early suitcases were lighter and more portable than trunks, but they were still bulky by today's standards. Leather, canvas, wicker or thick rubbery cloth was stretched over a rigid wood or steel frame. Corners were rounded out using brass or leather caps and some had wooden rails running around the case. Until steamship travel declined during the mid-20th century, many of these types of the case were advertised as waterproof with some lightweight models marketed specifically to women. The item gives us a snap-shot as to how people undertook travelling during a time when undertaking a journey for pleasure at the end of the 19th century was mainly only for the wealthy. This time saw the beginnings of change from the wealthy in society being able to travel, to the onset of mass tourism.

Includes an historical sketch of the Ballarat School of Mines. Contains images of the school from around 1920. The history outlined in the booklet follows: 'Ballarat has helped to influence the life and destinies of Australia in many ways, the recital of which would perhaps prove tedious to the citizens of less favoured localities! However, it can be said, without much fear of contradiction, that only less known thought Australia than its fame as a gold field is the reputation won for it by its school of Mines, ... Ballarat was still quite a new place when the School was founded, but a very propserous and popular place all the same, with a go-ahead lot of citizens brim full of the spirit of enterprise which seemsto animate mining populations generally. Money was plentiful, and they launched out into ventures, which later, were to develop and take the place of the gold mines, while what is more to the point, they understood the value of education. the old digging days were passing away. So far as Ballarat itself was concerned the day of the cradle and tin dish had already passed into an antiquity "as dead and distant as the age of the Tubal Caon," said dir redmond Barry on declaring the School open. Mining had become a serious business, and the mining engineer, the metallurgist, and the geologist had become a power in the land. In these circumstances the suggestions to found a School of Mines met with ready acceptance. The late Mr James M. Bickett had the honor of bringing forward the proposition at a meeting of the Ballarat Mining Board in October, 1869. it was agreed to, and the Government, having been approached for assistance, granted a lease of the old Supreme Court buildings at a nominal reantal. A modest sum, including 100 pounds from the Borough Council of Ballarat West, was subscribed by a number of sympathisers, and on the 26th October, 1870, the inaugural address was delivered by Sir Redmond Barry, the first President of the School. Classes were commenced on the 23rd January, 1871. The students at first were mostly adults. They were chiefly men emloyed at the mines, who had the wisdom and energy to devote their spare time to study, and, though their attendance was somewhat irregular, they made very good progress. Old prints which have been preserved show them at work at furnaces, big bearded men of the old-fashioned type of miner. It is interesting to note that among those who gave evidence and encouragement was Sir Roderick Murchison, who many years before had advised Cornish miners to emigrate to Australia to search for gold, and who in 1848 was in possession of gold ore sent from this country. Sir Roderick sent a parcel of books for the library, and gave useful advice as to the curriculum which should be adopted. The Museum, which now contains a most valuable collection of minerals, was one of the first things attended to, and the reports presented to the Council from time to time speak of additions being made from all parts of the world. New equipment was constantly being added to the School, a good deal of assay work was done, and some specimens were sent from the East Indies for examination as far back as 1873. By this time there was a difficulty in providing accomodation for the students who wished to enrol, and the number of instructors had grown from two to four. In 1882 the first building was being erected on what was then part of the gaol reserve. A little more than ten years afterwards a buildnig formerly serving as a Methodist Church was absorbed, while later on, the demand for accomodation increasing, the attack upon the gaol was renewed. The School continued to grow in reputation and size, and became the science centre of the district, and in 1889 a learge new building was opened by Sir Alexander Peacock. Students came from over seas as well as from all the States of Australia, and after going through their courses they took with them the name and fame of the old School to all parts of the globe. School of Mines boys have played a great part in developing the mining fields of Western Australia, South Australia, and africa, while old students who have made a name in their profession are constantly dropping in to see how the old place is getting along. It was not to be expected, however, that the Ballarat School would be left without rivals, its very success inspiring competition. Mining Schools were started in other parts of Australia, and, at the same time, Victoria ceased to hold first place as a mining state. On the other hand there was a great advance in manufacturing, and the demand for technicaly trained men became a great and as insistent as ever it had been for trained mining men. The Council was quick to adapt the school to the new conditions, and the result is seen in the institution, which is one of Ballarat's proudest possession. Instruction is given in all branches of technical work, and the classes are filled with students who are building up for Ballarat a reputation as an industrial centre, which promises to equal that which it formerly held as a mining town. Owing to its bracing climate, its abundant opportunities for recreations, and its accessibilty, Ballarat as a city is an ideal place for educational purposed, and is yearly becoming more and more appreciated throughout the State. The chairman of one of Ballarat's biggests industries claims that the workman can do twice the day's work here that he can do in Melbourne. he was a little enthusiastic over it, perhaps, but it is a well-known fact that the healthy and invigourating Ballarat climate is conducive to both physical and mental activity, and the records of the School provide ample proof of it. One of the most interesting and successful branches of the School of Mines and Industries - if the name be enlarged with the enlargement of its scope - is the Technical Art School. "The City of Statues" has from its earliest days been a stronghold of art. Art schools have flourised here, and in 1905 the Education Department came to the conclusion that the best thing to do with them was to place them under the management of the School of Mines Council. A magnificent new Technical Art School was built at a cost of some 12,000 pounds on the site of the old Supreme Court building, and was formally opened on the 23rd July, 1915. The results have not only been justified but surpassed all anticipations. The most comprehensive list of subjects is taught, and this list is constantly added to. Students have flocked to the art School, which may be said to occupy a unique position in Australia, and its record of success is really astonishing. Its students supply art teachers for the newer schools that are being built, and many occupy leading positinos in important business houses. So well is its reputation known that orders are constantly being received, not only from Victoria, but from other States, for honor boards and challenge shields to be designed and made. The most recent addition to the School of Mines and Industries is the Junior Technical School, for which a new building is now being erected on a portion of the gaol site, transferred to the School of Mines Counci by the Government. At the present moment temporary quarters are being occupied. Some students after passing through the Junior School go straight to employment, continuing perhaps to attend the evening trade classes, while others move on to the senior School. In a review of the work of the School of Mines mention must be made of a series of industrial research carried out under supervision of the Principal. One in particular, regarding the suitability of the local ores for the manufacture of pigments attracted much attention, while the experiemtns on the manufacture of white potery from Victorian clayes were considered of sufficient importance by the Federal Advisory Council of Science and Industry to warrant the appointment of a special investigator. The results of these have been most encouraging, and may have far-reaching consequences. The vocational training of returned soldiers also should not be overlooked. The work was taken in hand from the first, before the Repatriation Department gave assistance, and now with the help of the department of the School has become one of the largest vocational training centres in Victoria outside of Melbourne. The soldiers, trained in a variety of occupations, have made remarkable progress, and already considerable numbers have found employment in local workshops and factories. To sum up, the School is divided into the following departments, each well staffed and equipped: - The School of Mines, science, and Engineering; the Techncial Art School, the Boys' Junior Technical School, the Girl's Preparatory Technical Classes, Trade Classes, and the Commercial School. The school of Mines, science and Engineering, comprises the following branches: - Mining, Metallurgy, Geology, Electrical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Applied Chemistry, and Pharmacy. Battery treatments, Cyanide Testing, Smelting, Assays, and Clay Testing from a regular part of the School's work. Students gaining qualifications obtain concession in their courses at the university, should they proceed there to continue their studies. The technical Art school curriculum includes training in all branches of pictorial and applied art, an Architectural Diploma Course, a Draughtman's Course, technical Art teachers' Course, Photography,Ticket Writing, Art Metal Work, Woodcarving, Needlework, and Leather work. The Trade Classes give instruction in Telephone Mechanics, telegraphy, Carpentry, Cabinet Making, Plumbing, Blacksmithing, Fitting, Electric Wiring, and Printing. Numerous Scholarships are offered every year, and altogether students will find few places to equal the Ballarat School of Mines and Industries as a training place for their life's work. One of the first in the continent to be established, its Jubilee finds it still in the front rank, keeping pace with the times, and offering to the youths of this country the means of taking advantage of Australia's teeming opportunities. william, battery, smith, herbert, drawing from the antique, ballarat school of mines botanical gardens, ballarat school of mines, redmond barry, alfred mica smith, james bickett, museum, dick richards, ballarat junior technical school, s m b, ballarat school of mines and industries, ballarat technical art school, model mine, james m bickett, j m bickett, roderick murchison, vocational training rooms, wesley church, methodist church, alexander peacock, lathes, repatriation, repatriatin department, war service, school council, baragwanath, gold mining, mining laboratory, plaster cast, r.w. richards, anniversary, jubilee
