Creator

Description
Kardinia was the annual magazine of Geelong Teachers' College (G.T.C.). Opened on 31st January 1950 by Mr G. A. Osborne, G.T.C. was operational until April 1, 1977, when it officially became the School of Education, Deakin University.
The College's motto was "a posse ad esse" - from possibility to actuality.
Originally designed to be a quarterly publication, Kardinia (an indigenous word for "sunrise") evolved into the College's yearbook. It contained photographs and stories about significant events, class lists and photographs of the year's student intake, and articles of an academic or humorous bent.
The collection is a small selection of photographs from the early 1950s. As one of Deakin University's many antecedent institutions, the College's records are held by Deakin University Archives for the benefit of interested researchers and alumni.
