Collab Echoes: Echoes of the Murray River

Our neighbourhood, Alberton in South Australia, has a long and rich history embedded in its soil, squares, streets, buildings and landmarks. This self-guided tour unlocks new perspectives of Alberton's past and present by layering historical accounts and records with the memories and stories of those that have called this beautiful suburb home. In the future, we hope to add more places and stories to the walk. If you are or know someone with a story to share, please get in touch with us at historyproject.alberton@gmail.com. If you enjoy this walk, why not share it with your friends? # #sahistoryfest # #welovealberton # #albertonhistory # #thisismyneighbourhood Credits: Cover image: Chris A Smith, Alberton Ozone, 1924, photographer unknown, Chris A Smith collection S334, Architecture Museum, University of South Australia (used with permission) Image kindly colourised by Kelly Bonato of A Colourful History Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AColourfulHistory Instagram: a_colourful_history_australia

Children from Beeac Primary School in regional Victoria, Australia talk about their surrounds and environment. The stories that you are about to hear are from the beautiful lakes country, home of the Brolga, in the south west of regional Victoria.
