FAIRBRIDGE FARM SCHOOL, MOLONG

The Fairbridge organisation operated a Farm School for underprivileged
British child migrants near Molong in NSW's central west from 1938 until
1974. About 1,000 boys and girls passed through and were trained as
"farmers and farmers' wives". 

A new CD-rom by Ian Bayliff and David Hill documents the history of the
Fairbridge settlement and features photographs, plans and drawings. To
learn more about the Fairbridge Heritage Project and purchase the
CD-rom, visit:
