Historical information

On Friday 15th October 1999, two suitcases of materials were collected by the Geelong office of the Vision Australia Foundation, and stored inside the boarded up fireplace in Baxter Hall. Containing a range of materials, from empty cereal packets and seeds, to calendars, magazines and catalogues, it was designed to mark the change of name as well as the start of a new millennia.

These images show some of the audience and the ceremony on the day.
