Objects of Substance- The 1966 Central Australia Tour

On the road again: the 1966 Central Australia tour

The 1966 Centralians Booklet with School magazines and Box Brownie.

There are times when the least exciting-looking or professional artefact reveals a wealth of information and insight into the lives of students. The celebratory booklet produced by the students of the first Central Australia trip is one such example. From the first School excursion to North Queensland in 1929, field trips at Grammar have always been one way for the School to deliver a broad, liberal, education and this 1966 trip certainly seemed to fit the bill.
