Hi my name is lorraine my father was a manager on many immigration hostels from 1965 thru to the late 70 s.we travelled all over Australia to a lot of different camps Pennington,Broadmeadows,Brooklyn,endeavour,east hills,grey lands ,villa wood to name a few.I used to envy all the migrants they got to get away from hostels but for me it was my life.My father followed all the rules we weren�t allowed pets ,I wasn�t allowed to join the sports teams ,I was only 5 when we migrated from England ten pound poms.my father worked in port Kembla steel works then got a job on hostels and worked his way up.if anyone remembers us I would love to hear from you.We were still on hostels when it became CACS in the 80s.so all of my childhood and teenage years was on hostels. |
