EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in the history of rural education in Australia, taken in the year 1911. The image shows a group of schoolchildren, both Aboriginal and European, making their way to school on horseback in the Australian outback. The children, dressed in simple yet practical clothing, are seated on their horses with an air of concentration and determination, as they navigate the rugged terrain. The scene is a poignant reminder of the early days of settlement in Australia, when education was a luxury that not all children had access to, especially those living in remote areas. Horses were a common mode of transportation in the Australian bush, and this method of travel allowed children to attend school despite the long distances between their homes and the nearest educational institutions. The presence of both Aboriginal and European children in the photograph underscores the complex history of race relations in Australia during this period. While Indigenous Australians had been displaced from their traditional lands and subjected to assimilation policies, they were also integrated into the broader Australian society in various ways, including education. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of children growing up in the Australian bush over a century ago. It is a powerful reminder of the resilience and adaptability of children, as well as the importance of education in shaping the future of individuals and communities.
