Send my love: defiance and material culture at the Parramatta Industrial School for Girls. Jones, R. Australasian historical archaeology : journal of the Australasian Society for Historical Archaeology, 36:47–58, 2018. Publisher: Australasian Society for Historical Archaeology
abstract   bibtex   
Modified objects and extensive graffiti recorded from within the infamous Parramatta Industrial School for Girls (1887-1974), formerly the Roman Catholic Orphan School (1844-1886) have the ability to tell the dark stories of neglect and abuse in this place. A living institutional memory of the site provides an opportunity for history, archaeology and a living community to work together. This paper argues that a broader range of methodologies and approaches can be used to create more meaningful interpretations of this unique place.
