Gayle Carr

Gayle Carr makes this submission on behalf of herself, Kathryn Williamson and the late Diana Halmarick. It outlines the range of historic reference materials available to learn more about the colonisation of Victoria and its impacts on First Peoples, based on one family’s search for their own ancestors’ role in the 1842 Mustons Creek massacre. It advocates that the teaching of frontier history becomes a mandatory part of the Victorian School Curriculum.
