Christmas celebrations at Diamantina Hospital

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  The Diamantina Hospital was established in 1901 by adapting the facilities of the Diamantina Orphanage, named after the wife of the first Governor of Queensland, Lady Diamantina Bowen. This had been founded in 1864 under the committee of the Brisbane Hospital in two cottages, near the Victoria Barracks, that had been used as a fever hospital.

  Generations of Queenslanders celebrate Australia Day in a variety of ways! Families and communities share the holiday in the big outdoors, participating in a range of events and activities that demonstrate the true “Aussie” spirit. Some of the images of the past remind us of the ways in which we still enjoy these traditions. …our love of sport and a game of backyard cricket… …a day at the beach or the chance to catch a fish... …parades and gatherings, reminders of our heritage... …respect, citizenship and remembrance...
