Provider: UPA (United Protestant Association)

Year Opened: 29th April 1947

Year Closed: December 1961

 

The property was originally a Boys’ Grammar School used by Portuguese Timor refugees and a convent from Brisbane for WWII.

The property was later purchased in 1946 and opened as a Home for Boys.  It was closed in 1961 as the home was ‘too isolated’.

The home sat on 17 acres surrounded by Oliver, Lawrence Cross and Oxford Street, in the near backstreets of Glen Innes, not too far from the centre of town.

Many thanks to Ron for providing the image and updated information.
