Child Migrant Friendship Society Celebrates with “SAUSAGES and SONGS”



More than 100 former Child Migrants gathered on the site of the original St Joseph’s Orphanage in Wembley (now McAuley Hall) to celebrate

Christmas 2003 with a sausage sizzle, champagne, lots of fun and the traditional Christmas sing-a-long!

Maureen Colgan reports that the girls outsang the boys, although John Hawkins was in fine voice!

The AGM welcomed new Committee Members: Maureen Briggs-Trewin, Judy Pavia and Irela De Bono. Maureen Colgan says “We are thrilled to have them aboard but would also like to have a few men join us. Anyone interested??”

The Committee will be planning future gatherings later this year and would welcome suggestions on location, theme, etc.

Any inquiries about the Friendship Society, please contact Maureen Colgan on (08) 9317 2753.
