Australian Orphanage Museum
Mr EREN (Lara) (10:03): It was very poignant to attend the opening of the Australian Orphanage Museum in my electorate recently. The museum tells the important stories of many incredibly brave children who grew up or spent time in orphanages across the nation. The objects throughout the museum act as a reminder of the suffering these children experienced during this time. Thank you to Care Leavers Australasia Network co-founder and CEO Leonie Sheedy for inviting me to attend the emotional opening.
