A heartbreaking exhibition at Melbourne's Immigration Museum about child migrants who came to Australia for a better life, but faced devastation and hardship
Over 7,500 children were sent to Australia as part of the British and Australian Government-endorsed schemes between 1860 - 1967. The Australian and British Governments thought it was for the greater good – Britain was facing overpopulation and Australia was crying out for settlers, particularly good British stock – but children were placed in farmsteads, and religious institutions, and treated like slaves. Learn about the stories of these children at the Immigration Museum’s latest exhibition.
