This web site was designed for people, now in their early 70s who were students at the original school site located at Petersham Public School, West Street, Petersham NSW 2049, Australia.
This cohort generally started Kindergarten in 1956, and finished primary school typically in 1963. The original buildings on the site of Petersham Public School are now part of Petersham TAFE, part of Sydney Institute of TAFE. Apparently the interiors have been restored and maintained in wonderful condition.

Please feel free to send me any photos of classes of students from any years at Petersham Public School. For example Alan Bennett has jsut sent me photos of his sister’s Lower KIndergarten in 1951 and class 6B in 1957, taught by Mr Harry Baltins. I will post them up to this web site as soon as a I solve a minor security problem stopping me displaying new photos to this site
