EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a young boy, clad in a simple cotton shirt and shorts, stands amongst the lush greenery of Fairbridge Farm School in Pinjarra, near Perth, Western Australia. Established in 1907, Fairbridge Farm School was a pioneering institution designed to provide care and education for orphaned and destitute children from the United Kingdom. The 1930s were a challenging time for the school, as the Great Depression brought hardship to many families both in Australia and abroad. Yet, despite the economic turmoil, the dedication of the Fairbridge Farm School staff and volunteers never wavered. This so-called "typical boy" embodies the spirit of resilience and determination that defined the children of Fairbridge Farm School. With a determined look in his eyes and his hands tucked into his pockets, he appears to be deep in thought, perhaps contemplating the day's chores or the wonders of the natural world surrounding him. The serene setting of the farm, with its rolling hills, verdant fields, and clear blue sky, offers a stark contrast to the hardships faced by these children. Yet, the photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of care, education, and community in shaping the lives of vulnerable children. Fairbridge Farm School closed its doors in 1973, but its legacy lives on in the countless lives it touched and the enduring impact it had on the welfare and education systems of Western Australia and beyond. This photograph is a testament to the strength and determination of the children who called Fairbridge Farm School home and the tireless efforts of those who cared for them.
