What A Reunion It Was!!!
A Celebration of Survival 1938 - 1998
Sixty years after the first of many child migrants arrived in Western Australia, the call went out to ALL former child migrants to join the 1938-ers for a celebratory reunion lunch.

Sunday 8 August 1998 saw 300 former Child Migrants of Catholic Care Institutions, and their partners, arrive at the Boundary Room of the WACA to enjoy a very special reunion lunch.

Tom Haydon and his fellow "38-ers" had issued the invitation and they came in droves - men from Bindoon, Clontarf, Castledare and Tardun, women from St Joseph's in Subiaco and Nazareth House in Geraldton.

Maureen Colgan not only helped to organise the reunion but has written a story on the day which we feature later in this newsletter.
