Facing hardships, danger and deprivation that they endured as they carried out their duties in the care of the many maimed, injured and dying soldiers from Gallipoli to the many battlefield of Europe. They themselves under dust, heat or snow. Nurses also dealt with spanish flu and malaria, some of them succumbing to these diseases while serving and after their return. Their heroism was quickly forgotten and faded into the distance over the years. Today we pay homage to these amazing ladies

23 May: Law Week Walk – The Convict Taint
An estimated one in five Australians has convict ancestry. In Tasmania, the figure is even higher. In 2009, 74% of Tasmania’s population was estimated to be descended from convicts.
In the 1950s and ‘60s, historians argued that Australians should not romanticise either the convict system or the people within it.
We will be asking you if you agree with this when we visit the graves of former convicts who survived transportation, the road gangs to be teased, insulted and prodded, their masters and the brutal punishment of the lash.
Their life and the crimes they committed while serving their sentence and their behavior after being freed are for you to judge. You the Jury will be asked if they made worthwhile citizens or were they just ner’er do well raggle-taggle nobodies.
