EDITORS COMMENTS
The photo captures a significant moment in history - the departure of English emigrants for Australia in 1955. The image shows Mr and Mrs John Kemp, along with their four young children, at St Pancras Station in London. They are about to embark on a life-changing journey to Queensland as part of the free and assisted passage scheme. In this poignant snapshot, the family stands on the platform, ready to board the Strathaird ship that will take them away from their homeland. Their expressions reveal a mix of excitement, anticipation, and perhaps even sadness at leaving behind everything they have known. This photograph symbolizes not only their personal story but also represents a larger wave of migration during that era. It reflects the aspirations and dreams of countless individuals who sought new opportunities in faraway lands. As we gaze upon this historical document today, it serves as a reminder of human resilience and determination. It prompts us to reflect on our own ancestors' journeys while acknowledging the challenges faced by migrants throughout history. This print is an invaluable piece of visual documentation that allows us to connect with our shared past and appreciate the sacrifices made by those who paved the way for future generations seeking better lives elsewhere.
